Introduction:
This article outlines the process for activating and using Quick Submit.
Quick Submit is a feature in Turnitin that allows instructors to submit papers directly for plagiarism checking without creating a class or assignment. It’s especially useful for one-off submissions, such as:
- Checking a paper submitted outside the LMS
- Reviewing work from students not enrolled in a current course
- Comparing drafts or resubmissions
Step-by-Step Instructions:
- 1. Login to your Turnitin account at https://www.turnitin.com
- 2. Click User Info from the top of the instructor homepage.
- 3. On the preferences page, select yes from the activate quick submit drop-down. menu.
- 4. The quick submit tab will appear on the instructor homepage, making the quick submit inbox available for use.
- 5. Submit a document under the Quick Submit tab by clicking the Submit button.
- 6. Customize your search targets, e.g., search the Internet, search student papers, search periodicals, journals, etc.
- 7. Select the repository or select "No repository" if you want to exclude it from the database.
Important Notes:
- • Quick Submit is separate from LMS-integrated submissions (Brightspace).
- • Files submitted via Quick Submit do not appear in the LMS.
- • If you choose to add the file to the repository, future student submissions may be flagged as similar.
