QuickMarks are feedback comments that you can save and reuse across Turnitin assignments as appropriate.

What are QuickMark sets?

QuickMark sets are groups of QuickMarks. You can create multiple QuickMark sets, for example a set relevant to a specific course or level of study. Feedback Studio provides a number of built-in QuickMark settings, including Composition, Composition Marks, Format, Punctuation, and Usage.
