Turnitin class ID and enrollment key for AI detection and plagiarism

Introduction

In this tutorial, we will explore how to use Turnitin for logging in, creating an account, and receiving documents from students to check for similarities and AI detection. Follow these steps to successfully get started.

To begin, navigate to the Turnitin login page. Once there, enter your registered email address and password to access your account. If you do not have an account, you will need to register first. After logging in, you will be directed to your instructor dashboard.

Features of the Instructor Account

Not all users will have access to the same features on Turnitin. For instance, the "Quick Submit" button, among others, is available only on paid instructor accounts. An instructional account allows you to create classes, where students can submit their work for similarity checks.

Step 2: Create a Class

To create a class, click on the "Add Class" button. Here's how to fill out the necessary information:

Class Name: For example, "Test"
Enrollment Key: Create a simple key for students to use when joining the class (e.g., "business2025").
Subject Area: Assign an appropriate subject area, such as Business or Foreign Language.
Student Level: Indicate if the class is for undergraduates or another level.
Class End Date: Set a date for when the class will end (you can leave it as the default value or change it).

After providing this information, click the submit button. Upon creating the class, you’ll receive a unique Class ID and the Enrollment Key you just entered.

Step 3: Creating Assignments

After class creation, you can start creating assignments. Click on the class name to enter it. You will find options for assignments, student lists, a grade book, and more.

Adding an Assignment

To add an assignment:

Click on "Add Assignment."
Enter an assignment title and description, along with the start and due dates.
Specify submission requirements like word count, whether submissions should be stored in the repository (it's advisable not to store submitted papers), and allow peer review.
Decide other settings like "Allow Late Submissions" or "Enable Grammar Check."

Finally, submit the assignment details.

Step 4: Enrolling Students

Currently, no students are enrolled in your class. It is recommended that students enroll themselves using the unique Class ID and Enrollment Key. Alternatively, you can manually add students one by one by filling in their names and emails or uploading a list of students from a file.
