Instructor Instructions | Student Instructions
In order to use PeerMark the instructor must set up a Turnitin assignment on Course Site.
Complete the settings for the Turnitin assignment. Note: you do not have to use Turnitin's originality report function or other advanced options if you simply want to use PeerMark.
However, the name, availability dates, and Max Marks under 'Assignment Part 1' will need to be set. This gives the student a date/time range to submit their file for peer review. Students will not be able to submit a file after the due date passes.
When you are finished, click the 'Save and display' button at the bottom of the page.
The Turnitin Submission Inbox page will open. The Turnitin assignment along with its settings are listed at the top.
You will now need to create a PeerMark assignment. Click on the green PeerMark Manager button.

Click the plus sign button to create a new PeerMark assignment. You may have to scroll to the right in order to locate the button.
Add a title for the PeerMark assignment, and click the calendar icons to update dates as appropriate. The start date and end date for the PeerMark assignment are completely independent of the Turnitin assignment. The PeerMark start date/time range sets the availability for students to review the papers and they will not be able to peer review after the due date has passed. Again, you may have to scroll to view all of the window's contents.
The Additional Settings menu allows for other options, most importantly how many papers are distributed to the students. In the example below, one paper will be distributed automatically to each student.
When you are finished, click the 'Save & Continue' button. You may have to collapse the Additional Settings menu in order to view the button.
The PeerMark assignment will be listed below the Turnitin assignment and green PeerMark icons will be available to the instrucor. The gear icon opens the PeerMark assignment settings; the menu icon opens a list of items students have submitted and reviewed.
If you would like to read the review left by the student, click on the number under the Received column. If you would like to add your own comments, click the blue edit button under the Review column.
Click on the blue check box to open the PeerMark review.
You will be able to view the comments left by the student.
