Is there a Turnitin guide that is being planned for students? As in a 'student view' version. Our School would like to get one out fairly shortly - we have our largest number of assignment submissions in week 7. The requirement was triggered by students who had recently submitted via Turnitin and expressed concern on whether their work has been submitted successfully, which I mostly put down to its unfamiliarity against the standard assignment system. 

I will otherwise go ahead and create one. (I would appreciate support in going over it for correctness.)

The aim is to complete the guide by the end of this week and send it to all our undergraduates at the beginning of next week.

Dear Hassan,

Although we've communicated about this outside of QMplus Hub, I just wanted to reply in case anyone else was interested in a guide.

Although we don't have a written student guide, we do have a video guide which is available on our 'QMplus for students' course page and can also be found on youtube: https://youtu.be/LHfTBML0vkw

Also we will be creating a guide on our website using yours as a template as it will be beneficial for other departments using Turnitin.  

If anybody has created a guide for their school and would like someone to review it, please feel free to email elearning@qmul.ac.uk and someone from our team will be happy to have a look.

Best Wishes
