Requirements
Student Writing assignments can be accessed on Turnitin.com and Turnitinuk.com, but an LTI 1.3 integration is recommended for optimum experience.
Enabling Student Writing assignments
Once Clarity is made available to your institution, the Student Writing assignment type is enabled by default. In your account settings, you will see the Student Writing Assignment option checked in the Assignment Settings section.
If you do not see the Student Writing Assignment option for your account, contact your Turnitin sales representative for assistance.
Once enabled, instructors will see the Student Writing assignment type as an option on the Turnitin assignment creation page. Instructors can create, view, and grade the final submission within Turnitin’s Feedback Studio.
Disabling Student Writing assignments
If you don’t want the Student Writing assignment type enabled for your institution, you can deselect the Student Writing Assignment option in the Assignment Settings section of your account settings.
