Turnitin submissions require a minimum of 25 words, and maximum of 400 pages, and a file size
maximum of 40 MB.
Students cannot submit multiple file uploads. They may be able to resubmit a document (see page 8) but
cannot upload more than one file at a time.
If the assignment is set to allow only file types that Turnitin can check for originality, Turnitin will only
accept files that can generate Originality Reports. This includes:
o Microsoft Word (.doc/.docx)
o OpenOffice Text (.odt)
o WordPerfect (.wpd)
o PostScript (.ps/.eps)
o HTML
o Hangul Word Processor file (.hwp)
o Rich text format (.rtf)
o Plain text (.txt)
o Google Docs via Google Drive
o Adobe PDF
o Microsoft PowerPoint (.pptx, .ppt, .ppsx, and .pps)
o Microsoft Excel® (.xls and .xlsx)
Turnitin will not accept PDF image files, forms, or portfolios, files that do not contain highlightable text
(e.g. a scanned file - usually an image), documents containing multiple files or files created with
software other than Adobe Acrobat.
If submitting with Google Drive, third party cookies must be allowed in your browser, otherwise, any
attempts to sign into Google to upload from Google Drive will fail. Note that Google Drive functionality
is not supported with IE8 or below. Do not upload Google Doc (.gdoc) files directly to Turnitin; a
.gdoc file does not store the document, but contains a reference to it online, in Google Docs.
Turnitin will not accept the following to generate Originality Reports:
o Password protected files
o Microsoft® Works (.wps) files
o Microsoft Word 2007 macros-enabled .docm files
o OpenOffice Text (.odt) files created and downloaded from Google Docs online
o Document (.doc) files created using OpenOffice, as they are not 100% Microsoft Word
equivalent
o Apple Pages
o Spreadsheets created outside of Microsoft Excel (i.e. .ods)
o Text with visual effects
Turnitin converts a PowerPoint slide deck into a static PDF, leaving all text and images in their original
format but leaving out features such as presenter notes, embedded video, and animations. Text with
visual effects is not supported, and it is recommended that any visual effects such as shadows and 3D be
removed prior to submitting to Turnitin.

When converting a file to a new file format, users should rename their file with a name other than that
of the original file. This will prevent permanent loss of the original formatting or image content of a
file due to it being overwritten.
If you want to use a Canvas rubric for the assignment, you must add the rubric before setting the
External Tool submission type. Create the assignment with any other submission type, save the
assignment, add the rubric, and then edit the assignment to select the External Tool.
If you want your assignment to be moderated, you must set up the moderated assignment before setting
the External Tool submission type. If you need to return to the moderate page after the External Tool is
added, open the assignment and add /moderate after the assignment URL.
Student View (Test Student) in ICON does not work with Feedback Studio.
You cannot have fractions (decimal points) in the grade in Feedback Studio. You can do it manually in
the ICON gradebook instead.
If a student uploads a second version of a paper, the first one is overwritten in Turnitin along with its
Originality Report, so the second version does not generate a match to the original. This also applies in a
case where an instructor manually deletes a student paper so the student can upload another one.
If you set an until date in ICON, it will block students’ access to the Feedback Studio assignment and
any feedback in it.
When creating an assignment with the “Turnitin/Feedback Studio” External Tool, do not use “open in a
new tab” as that can cause issue with the SSO (Hawk ID and password single sign-on) information not
passing correctly to the new tab. That can prevent students from being able to upload their documents.
You can enable Turnitin as part of a new Canvas assignment. Turnitin is enabled on a per-assignment
basis in ICON. Turnitin uses your user role for authentication and uses your Canvas account to create
and manage assignments. Creating a Turnitin assignment means creating the assignment in Canvas and
confirming the Turnitin Settings.
If you want to assign a Turnitin assignment to certain (not all) students in class, create the assignment
with Turnitin first. Save. Then go back in and assign it to the students. If you do both these steps at the
first setup, Turnitin will not function properly.

1. In Course Navigation, click the Assignments link.
2. Click the +Assignment box.
3. Add Assignment details.
In the Assignment Name field [1], create a name for the assignment. In the Description field [2], enter
the details of the assignment for your students. When students view the assignment, the description
appears at the top of the page. However, the text should not be significantly long in this space. If
necessary, you can include additional instructions for the assignment as part of the assignment Turnitin
settings. Enter the number of Points for the assignment [3], select the Assignment Group [4], and

5. Edit Due and Available from dates.
Set due or available from dates for the assignment. These dates appear throughout Canvas like regular
assignments.
By default, Canvas will set your assignment for everyone in your course [1]. Create a due date for the
assignment in the Due Date field [2]. You also have the option to change Available from and until date
fields [3].
Notes:
• If you set an until date for the assignment, students will not be able to access the LTI tool to view their
feedback.
• Be sure to confirm your dates in Turnitin settings.
• Differentiated Due Dates do not sync with Turnitin, so an assignment can only have one set of due
dates.
6. Save Assignment.

7. View Assignment.
View your assignment created with Turnitin. The assignment defaults to the Assignment Inbox.
Once your assignment has been created, you must also apply the same dates in Turnitin Settings. The
dates in Turnitin Settings should match the ones in Canvas. Otherwise, students will not be able to
access the assignment, even after the assignment has been published in Canvas.
Note: The Turnitin LTI is responsive to the size of your browser window. Your view of the Turnitin LTI
may vary from the image shown in this step.

EXERCISE TWO – Change Turnitin settings for a Turnitin Assignment As part of a Turnitin assignment, you must specify the settings that are allowed for student submissions.
Turnitin settings must be created or confirmed before students can view the assignment.
1. In Course Navigation, click Assignments.
2. Click the name of the assignment.
3. Click the Settings tab.

4. Edit the Turnitin Settings.
If you included a description for the assignment, it will display at the top of the page [1]. If you want to
include additional instructions, you can enter them in the Instructions field [2]. Instructions appear for
students in the Assignment Summary tab.
You do not need to change the submission file type option [3]; this feature is not currently available in
the Turnitin LTI.
Turnitin Start and Due dates may be synchronized with Canvas. If dates in Turnitin differ from the
dates created in the Canvas assignment, you can adjust them in Turnitin by using the calendar icon [4].
If the assignment does not include an Available from date, Turnitin sets the date one day prior to the
date the assignment was created. The feedback release date defaults to the due date. If no due date is set,
the due date and the feedback release date default to one week after the date the assignment was created.
To view Turnitin optional settings, click Optional settings [5].

5. Edit Optional Settings. Turnitin allows
you to specify additional settings.
In the first dropdown [1], select whether the
submission should be stored in the standard
paper repository or not stored at all.
Note: If you are creating a draft assignment,
you may not want to have Turnitin store the
submission. That way, when the final paper is
submitted it will not generate any matches to
the draft if the draft was stored in the standard
paper repository.
To allow late submissions, select the Allow
late submissions Yes or No check box [2].
This option sets whether or not you allow
submissions after the due date.
You can enable ETS e-rater [3], if you want
feedback marks for grammar and other writing
traits in QuickMark.
If you want to attach a Turnitin rubric to the
assignment, select a rubric from the rubric
menu [4].
For paper comparisons [5], select the
checkboxes for the sources you want to use
when comparing assignment submissions.
In the Similarity Report menu [6], you can
choose when students can view originality
reports and if they can resubmit their
assignment to Turnitin. Select the option you
want to allow for students to submit
assignments:
Generate reports immediately (students
cannot resubmit)
Generate reports immediately (students
can resubmit until due date): After 3
resubmissions, reports generate after 24
hours
Generate reports on due date (students can
resubmit until due date)
