Turnitin Help

To use Turnitin on Blackboard, you usually submit assignments through a special Turnitin-enabled link your instructor sets up. Here’s a step-by-step guide:


How to Submit an Assignment with Turnitin on Blackboard

🔹 1. Log in to Blackboard

  • Go to your school’s Blackboard login page and enter your credentials.

🔹 2. Go to Your Course

  • From the dashboard, select the course where the assignment is posted.

🔹 3. Find the Turnitin Assignment

  • Look for a section labeled something like:
    • “Assignments”
    • “Module X”
    • “Turnitin Submissions”
  • Turnitin assignments will often have a unique icon or say “View/Complete”.

🔹 4. Click the Turnitin Assignment Link

  • This opens a new window or embedded view to Turnitin.

🔹 5. Submit Your Paper

  • Click “Upload Submission” or “Submit File”.
  • Fill in the submission title and upload your document (Word, PDF, etc.).
  • Click “Upload”, review the preview, then click “Confirm”.

🔹 6. Check Submission Confirmation

  • You’ll see a confirmation screen and get a digital receipt.
  • You may also receive a confirmation email.

📊 Viewing Your Similarity Report

  • After submission, Turnitin generates a Similarity Report (usually within 5–30 minutes).
  • Go back to the assignment link later and click “View” to see the report, if your instructor has allowed it.

📝 Tips

  • Only submit final versions—Turnitin may store them in its database.
  • If resubmissions are allowed, you’ll see the option and can upload again (check assignment settings or ask your instructor).
