Turnitin assignment

Turnitin assignments do not provide an override facility. We recommend creating a separate Turnitin assignment for SORA, EC or DAP authorised approved students.
Adding Creating a new Turnitin assignment activity and then manually adding the data is recommended, instead of duplicating an existing Turnitin assignment.

During the initial set up of a Turnitin assignment, you can allow submissions after the due date, however, if a student has already made a submission prior to the deadline and needs to submit late, or has an agreed extension, their previously submitted paper would need to be removed from the submission area before they would be able to submit again once the deadline has passed. Once the Due Date is reached, all submitted work is locked, and re-submissions are not allowed. We therefore recommend creating a separate Turnitin assignment for SORA, EC or DAP approved students.
