TII: Submit an assignment (Canvas)
- Alyssa Goudy
The following information is for students submitting a file submission to Turnitin through Canvas.
Before proceeding, please ensure that the file you'd like to submit will be accepted. This can be confirmed by connecting with your professor, or reviewing the assignment details in Canvas.
Please note:
Not every assignment will have Turnitin enabled! Please ask your professor if an assignment should be using Turnitin if you are having issues viewing the assignment.
For more information regarding Canvas Assignment submissions, please visit the How do I submit an online assignment?
Submit an assignment
Log into canvas.lemoyne.edu and visit the course with your assignment.
Click into the assignment.
Scroll down the page until you see the Turnitin Assignment Dashboard. This dashboard can be identified by the image below:
4. From the Turnitin Assignment Dashboard, click Upload Submission to submit your file to the assignment.
If the Upload Submission button is unavailable, you may be attempting to submit before the start date or after the due date. Click the Summary tab to check your assignment's key dates and any additional settings that may be affecting your submission.
Additional submission information
The upload submission option allows you to submit your paper to the assignment by directly loading the file from your device.
You can opt to upload your file in one of two ways:
Select the appropriate button and locate the file on your device.
Alternatively, drag the file you would like to submit into the boxed area.
Select Upload and Review to proceed to the review stage. Alternatively, click Cancel to locate a different file.
Resubmitting an assignment
Some assignments may allow students the ability to overwrite their previous submissions until an assignment's due date.
This option is activated by an instructor on an assignment-by-assignment basis.
If resubmissions are not enabled, your instructor must manually delete your previous submission to allow you user to submit your second file.
If you have already submitted the assignment, your dashboard will look similar to the image below:
