How do I attach a green sticker?

Copy and Paste your green sticker supplied by student Services into your Paper at the start of your work.  This will show in the Turnitin Feedback studio to your marker whether in anonymous or named attempts.

How do I zoom in and out?

Two ways to do this:

  • Click on ‘print’ it brings up a view of the whole document as opposed to just a zoomed-in view.
  • You can zoom in and out of the student view using ctrl+ and ctrl-.  This also reduces the size of the comment pane, so this needs to be resized again to write the feedback, but you can zoom in out and use the scroll bars to frame areas.
