How to use Turnitin through Moodle by submitting to a Turnitin Assignment

...

Check your Module or Course Handbook for information on how to submit assignments through Moodle. This may be through a link on the Moodle page for your module or it may be in a separate Moodle site set up by your School. The TEST YOUR TEXT 'Test your Text' space in Moodle (instructions for accessing this are below) allows students to test their assignments by uploading them to receive an originality report for their own use before they submit the assignment for real.
