Why don't I see the '!' in the Blackboard Grade Center for a student who has submitted to a Turnitin Assignment?
Sometimes the connection between Bb & TII skips a beat. The paper was submitted to TII, but TII couldn't send the "!" to the Grade Center.
If you can't download the paper, you can delete the submission and have the student submit again.
|
Why am I getting an error when trying to modify an existing Turnitin Assignment or grade a submission in an existing Turnitin Assignment?
The Grade Center column must have the same title as the Turnitin Assignment. If the Grade Center column is missing or if the title is different (e.g., abbreviated, etc.) this will cause errors.
|
How do I copy Turnitin Assignments in Blackboard? Normally the Course Copy process will work. Select the Content Area with the student link and the Grade Center Columns and Settings to assure copy success.
|
Does Turnitin grab user passwords from Blackboard?
No, TII does not grab users' Bb passwords. TII stores UserIDs as a part of the verification process, but does not have access to passwords. Only the user's Bb email address and a unique ID assigned to each user within Bb are used in the verification process. Because a user is logged in to Blackboard, TII assumes they have already been authenticated.
|
NOTE: We have been informed that TurnItIn will not support Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) starting January 1, 2013.
Submissions using IE7 may not work properly.
TII will no longer test or fix features for IE7.
We recommend using Google Chrome of Apple Safari browsers for Blackboard and TII. |
