Turnitin Assignments
• Creating a Turnitin Assignment allows students to upload a document and through a text-matching process, evaluate their critical synthesis skills.
• An Originality Report is generated that allows students and staff to see the sources of supporting evidence and how it has been incorporated into writing.
![Page 21: Assessment Tools](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022012918/55b4c191bb61eb59668b46b6/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Turnitin Assignments
• Turnitin has particular strength in supporting formative feedback – students can be permitted to make multiple submissions to revise their writing.
• Turnitin can also be used summatively as a way of submitting a final piece of work.
