release Turnitin marks and feedback

Page last updated:

This guide explains how to release marks and feedback to students from Turnitin. The steps in this guide relate to MyBeckett Ultra modules.

Key points:

  • Check you have set the correct Feedback Release Date for the assignment. If the date passes, marks and feedback will be visible to students even if you edit the date. This cannot be reversed. The only option is to hide the assignment (either in the content area or Grade Centre - one action hides both), then you will need to manually make it visible. 
  • You do NOT need to hide Grade Centre columns as long as the Feedback Release Date of the assignment is correct and in the date is in the future after marking is complete (4 weeks after the due date is the general rule but please factor in the Flexible Deadlines). This will determine the release of marks and feedback to students with no issues.

For extensions, RAPs and mitigation:

  • Create separate inboxes for extensions, RAPs and mitigation.
  • Use release conditions to control access to these Turnitin assignment for relevant students. This is to personalise the submission reminders which feed through to all students via the 'Activity Stream'. Otherwise your students may ask why they are seeing reminders, if they have already submitted.

In MyBeckett Ultra, the Feedback Release Date of the Turnitin assignment controls when the marks and feedback are released to students.

You do not need to manually unhide Grade Centre columns in MyBeckett Ultra.

If a student has opened a Turnitin submission for more than 30 seconds, go to the eye icon in the column after the Date Submitted and before the Grades column.

If viewed by the student it will change colour from grey to green.

You can hover your cursor over the eye icon to find out the date and time that the student viewed the paper.

The image below shows that the student has not viewed their score.
