Turnitin Paper Request Treatments (Original)

Overview

If a person from another institution sends a request to a course's Course Coordinator in UQ regarding a student's assignment in Turnitin, the staff member can click on the Reply button and then the document is sent to the person who initiated contact. The issue is that the paper sent back is not de-identified, meaning the student's name etc is provided to an outside institution.

UQ Process

All Paper View Requests for Turnitin assignments from institutions outside of UQ are sent to an email address where all requests will be disabled. This does not affect accessing matches within UQ sources which continues to work automatically. This process was implemented in 2020 due to a recommendation from the Digital Learning Sub-Committee that was endorsed by the Teaching & Learning Chair.
