If you organise students into groups to work on collaborative projects with the idea of a single submission per group, e.g., a joint presentation to be submitted on behalf of all of them, then a Moodle assignments Assignment is ideal. Turnitin Assignment does not recognise groups which submit one between them (groups can only be used for sorting individual submissions for marking).

note about Groupings

It is vital that if students submit in a group, that Moodle knows which group each submission belongs in, and who to apply the submission and marks to.

If students are in the incorrect group, in more than one group, or in no group, then there can be problems.

So for every Group Assignment, there must be a Grouping into which you put all the groups that are to be used for this particular assignment. (Other groups can be used for other purposes, but as they are not in the grouping, Moodle will not take them into account.)

More on how Groupings work in Moodle

The setup

Once you have created the Groups in your Moodle module (Hamburger Menu > Participants > Action menu > Groups) do the following:

...

6. Select the Grouping which you want to use for the assignment. N.B. for Group Submissions, a student can only be a member of a single group at a time within the assignment grouping.

7. Normally we recommend "Require all members to submit" is set as 'No' then only one student needs to submit on behalf of the group, and it can be any one of the members.      
If you definitely want all students in a group to officially confirm they are happy with the group piece of work that has been submitted you will need to force require all students to click the submit button.   
Note:  Only Only once every member of the group has clicked the Submit button will the assignment become visible to you

    1. Go to Submission settings and change "Require students click submit button" to 'Yes'
    2. Go to Group submissions settings and change "Require all group members to submit" to 'Yes'

Group submission settingsPlease note: Normally we recommend "Require all members to submit" is set as 'No' then only one student needs to submit on behalf of the group, and it can be any one of the members.

Do not change group allocations once submission has started as a student's submission can be overwritten because they have been moved group. 

8. When you have finished on with the settings, click on the 'Save and return to module' button

How to: Mark Group submissions

It By default, giving a grade to the submission will be reflected for each student in the group. Alternatively it is possible to give students within a group their own individual mark, or you may prefer to give one grade to the entire group. The toggle for this parameter option is found on the marking page under Group Submission Settings.
