Use of Turnitin outside of course requirements

[blewe001]

Is there a way to do a turnitin review for a random paper that was submitting this summer.  She is not registered for a course but would like to run it through a turnitin reveiw.

thank you.

Hello @blewe001 ...

I believe that you should be able to sign in to the Turnitin website to run a student paper through their plagiarism checker, but I will tag @dhulsey to confirm this for sure.  (I'm not an instructor, so I don't use this as much as Dallas does.)  Also, Dallas has a really great blog with all kinds of information about Turnitin that may be of interest to you called Canvas and Turnitin.

I hope this will be of help to you.  Sing out if you have any other questions about this...thanks!  Take care, stay safe, and be well.

@blewe001 ,@Chris_Hofer is correct. The sort version: If you do not have a login for the Turnitin website, go through the forgotten password process with the primary school email on your Canvas profile. This will gain you access to the Turnitin web portal. In the settings on the site, turn on quick submit. Now, you can log in and submit papers, discussion posts, quiz answers, etc. More detailed instructions are available at Canvas and Turnitin. Does that help? Please let me know if you have any questions!
