Canvas@Illinois, Turnitin, Managing an LTI 1.3 Assignment

Once your students have submitted files to a Turnitin assignment, you will need the following information to check their submissions.

If you have created an LTI 1.3 Turnitin assignment, you can check students' submissions and grade the assignment with the following steps.

Click the Assignments link in the course navigation menu.
Click the title of the assignment you want to check. You will now enter the Turnitin Student Submissions interface.
Click on the title of the assignment under the words Student Submissions to expand the details of the assignment and edit some of the settings of the assignment. Click the arrow to collapse this frame.
At the top right of the submission list, you'll find several action buttons:
- Search - Search for a specific student or submission.
Note: For large classes, the search feature may become temporarily disabled. To re-enable search, visit each page of the submission list to load all students.
- Refresh reports - Check for any updates to the submission list without reloading the webpage. This includes updated submission data or refreshed reports.
- Download - Download selected reports and submission files.
- Resync grades - Re-send assignment grades to the gradebook.
The submission list includes the following information for each student:
- Student / Title - The student's first and last name, followed by the title of their submission.
- Submitted - The date and time the submission was received. Late submissions appear in red.
- Grade - Displays the assigned grade. A pencil icon indicates the submission is ungraded.
- Similarity - The similarity score. If a Similarity Report is not available, dashes will appear.
- Flags - Shows a flag icon and the number of flags identified for the submission.
- Viewed - A checkmark indicates the student has opened their submission and viewed their grade or feedback.
- More - A menu with options to:
  - Open the report
  - Copy the submission ID
  - Submit a file on behalf of the student
  - Grant the student an extension
  - Request a deletion of the submission
You can download student submissions and reports in bulk using the Download button at the top of the submission list. Select the Download button to open the download options menu.

From here, select one of the following options:
- Submission list – Download a CSV file of all student submissions. This includes details like submission date, similarity scores, and AI writing percentages.
  
  The CSV file will always include an "Email" column. Email addresses will only appear if they are available and the student's identity is not hidden by anonymous grading.
- All reports and files – Download all available files and reports for each student. This includes original submissions, similarity reports, grading and feedback, and AI writing reports. Files are organized in folders by report type and student name (or placeholder name if anonymous grading is on).
- Similarity Reports – Export PDF versions of Similarity Reports for all submitted files.
- AI writing reports – Export PDF versions of AI writing detection results.
- Grading and feedback reports – Download PDFs that include any grades and feedback left by the instructor.
- Originally submitted files – Download the original file(s) uploaded by each student in their original format (e.g., .docx, .pdf).
If there are more than 500 files included in your download, the system will automatically split them into multiple ZIP files, each containing up to 500 files.

Keep the window open while your download is processing. Closing the tab or window will cancel the download.
The Insights tab within your assignment provides an overview of how each submission performed based on its overall grade and its rubric criteria.

The Insights column contains a column for each submission’s grade and a column for each criterion within your chosen rubric.
Click the pencil icon under the Grade column or the similarity score under the Similarity column to open the assignment in the Turnitin window to evaluate and grade the submission.
