How to view your grade and feedback in Turnitin

Once your lecturer has marked your assignment in Turnitin and released the grades and feedback (this happens once the Post Date has passed), you will be able to view both. 

How to view grade and feedback 

1) Click on the Turnitin assignment submission box.

2) This will load the Turnitin assignment page. At the bottom you will see your assignment details and within the Grade column your grade will appear. 

To see what feedback the marker has given you click on the blue pencil icon. 

3) A new browser tab will open and load up Feedback Studio which will contain your assignment and the feedback. You may see comments written on your assignment

The general feedback and rubric (if your assignment uses one) is in the ‘Instructor Feedback’ panel to the right of the screen (highlighted in red in the image below). Comments are shown inline in the paper.

Below this image is a breakdown of each button in the menu.

You can return to this at any time to amend your active layers. Open Instructor Feedback panel to see general feedback, access the rubric (if your assignment uses one) and see comments. The layer icon above this lets you toggle the comments on or off. Open Similarity Layer. For more information see viewing your Turnitin originality report. The layer icon above this lets you toggle the similarity layer on or off. Click on this icon to see options to download the current view as a pdf file (with comments), a copy of your digital receipt and your original submitted file.

Comments written on the assignment

If the marker has provided any comments directly on screen they will appear as a speech bubble icon on your assignment.

Click on those to reveal the comment. You may also see highlighted text that shows which text the comment relates to.

View Rubric

If the marker has used a rubric to either provide feedback or mark your assignment then you can access the feedback and the rubric by clicking on the View Rubric button in the ‘Instructor Feedback’ panel. 

A pop-up window will load displaying the rubric.

The light blue boxes indicate the marker’s assessment of how well you have met each criterion. 

How to download your assignment with feedback in PDF

At the bottom of the menu bar, you will see two icons, the first lets you choose to download the current view as a pdf file (with comments), a copy of your digital receipt and your original submitted file. The second gives submission details including the Submission ID, date and time of submission, when it was graded and the word count.

	Once you have clicked this icon this pop-up window will appear: Select the Current View option. This will then prompt a PDF to be downloaded from Turnitin of your assignment with the feedback and mark.
