titleGrading Forms

If you would like to break down the marks you give to students into discrete sections you can use Turnitin Grading Forms.

1. First of all open a Turnitin assignment and click on the name of the first paper you would like to mark (or choose any paper if you are setting up a Grading Form for later use).

2. To access Grading Forms you click on the fourth icon at the bottom, right of the Turnitin Assignment window to get to the Rubrics section. Then click the spanner icon in the top, right of the rubric grading panel to the right of the document (just below the grade box) and add a new Rubric or Grading Form.

3. Then click in the top, left corner of the pop-up box and choose "Create new grading form"

4. Fill in your section titles and (optional) descriptions*, then click the link icon in the top, right corner of the pop-up box to attach it to the assignment. You only need to do this for the first paper you mark and it will be there for the rest.

* Keep these on one line, as Turnitin will show the HTML codes for new line breaks and this will make them difficult to read.

5. The Grading Form will appear in the left hand panel and your descriptions will appear when you hover your mouse over the information (i) icons. I suggest putting the weighting in the description to help with your marking. E.g. /20 or /40

Each element should add up to a total of 100%. 

As you fill in the grade for each section , Turntiin Turnitin will tally the total score at the bottom.

6. Once you are done entering grades, click [Apply score to grade] and Turnitin will copy it to the Grade field at the top of the Turnitin assignment page.

You can then move on to the next assignment using the arrow icon in the top, right corner of the page - to the right of "paper 1 of #".
