Multiple part Turnitin assignments

Hello,

I am an ESL writing instructor and it is absolutely necessary that I have:

1. Turnitin plagiarism detection of all writing

2. The opportunity for students to submit multiple drafts for an assignment. 

Some students submit more drafts than others. It would be messy (and annoying) to have to create a new Turnitin assignment every time a student needs to submit another draft prior to a "final" one.

Blackboard's Turnitin integration had a helpful feature where one assignment had "multiple parts." I was using the assignment parts as drafts (see attached). Submitting more than one draft was optional, but some students needed the extra feedback and support.

I don't see this functionality in Canvas' integration with Turnitin. 

It is a game-changer for me and it may force me to go back to Blackboard if it's not available.

Am I missing something or is there a workaround?

Many thanks!

@MarkS2 This might also be dependent on the way that TurnItIn (TII) is configured to work with Canvas at your institution.  There are numerous configurations, tools, and services provided by TII, so contacting them for additional support with this issue is most likely the best option.  You may also want to refer to the Partner Listing: Turnitin for some documention on using TII with Canvas.
