Introduction

This quick start is designed to get you started with TurnitinUK (www.submit.ac.uk). If you would like more information on the service, our user manuals provide an extensive overview of the system.

As an administrator, you will need to distribute your institution's account id and account join password to your instructors. The steps below will outline the procedure for accessing your account information.


Step 1

To login to the service, go to www.submit.ac.uk and click on the login button.

On the login page, enter your email address and password. When you are done, click on the "login" button.



Step 2

After you login, you will see your account on your homepage. The account id appears to the left of your account. To access the account join password, click the stats button as shown below.


Step 3

Clicking the stats button opens the account statistics page containing the account join password. Please distribute the account id and account join password to your instructors along with this link:

www.submit.ac.uk/usage_jisc/JISC_instructor_quickstart.html

This is all your instructors will need to get started with the service.



Step 4

If you would like, you can manually add instructors to your account. If an instructor does not have a profile with the service, we will generate a profile and email the instructor his or her new profile information. To add an instructor to your account, click the instructors button on your administrator homepage.


Step 5

Your instructor list will open. This list contains all instructors currently joined to your account. Initially, only your name will appear. To add an instructor, click on the "add instructor" button.


Step 6

On the page that follows, enter the name and email address of the instructor you would like to add and click submit.


Step 7

The added instructor will appear on your instructor list.


As an administrator, adding instructors to your account -- either manually or by sending your instructors your account's information -- is the only task you must accomplish to administer an account. If you are interested in advanced administrative features, please take a look at our user manuals.
