Why are students sometimes getting email receipts from Turnitin when they haven't submitted anything?
If a tutor clicks on the grade pencil icon next to a student's name in a Turnitin inbox when they haven't submitted anything, the student receives an email 'digital receipt' with paper ID. Turnitin are aware of this issue and the Digital Education Services team have asked them to resolve it.
How do I allow students to submit scanned work or images to Turnitin?
Turnitin requires there to be at least 20 words submitted, so if students need to submit scanned work or images you should provide a coversheet containing at least 20 words that students can attach to the start of their scanned PDFs. In order to merge these in to one document students on a PC can use PDFMerge and students on a Mac can use the pre-installed Mac Preview . If you are using Desktop@UCL see: How to merge PDF documents. Note. scanned work or images cannot currently be checked for plagiarism by Turnitin.
