Accessing Feedback

Unmoderated Marks and Feedback are available for you to access in the grades area or via the assignment link.

How to access Marks and Feedback

Use the Canvas app on a mobile device, to set reminders for up-coming assignments and other items with due dates.

Setting Due Date reminders on your mobile App

You can create reminder notifications for assignments and Quizzes with due dates, so that you never forget about an up-coming assignment. You will need to:

  • Enable iOS notifications for the Canvas Student App
  • Reminders are linked to the specific device and are not shared between multiple devices.
  • This feature is available for mobile devices only.

What is Turnitin?

Your tutor may ask you to submit your coursework via the Turnitin Plagiarism detection tool. It allows your work to be uploaded for marking and automatically matched, for similarity with:

  • content on the web
  • e-journals
  • all the other assignments uploaded by the other institutions using the service.

Turnitin produces 'matching' reports that indicate where a similarity between different sections of text has been found. These reports are available to your tutor, and in some cases, they may be made available to you. If this is the case you can find more details in the guides provided.

Please double check that your file has been uploaded. This can be done by returning to the assignment submission point where you submitted your work.
