Students cannot see their Turnitin Assignment grades. How can they see their grades?

If students cannot see their Turnitin assignment grade, “Marking workflow state” of the assignment has been marked as “Not market”. To make students see their Turnitin assignment grades, you can follow these steps:

  1. At the course page, click the assignment.
  2. Click “View All Submission” button in the assignment page.
  3. Click “Select” at the top of the student list.
  4. Select “Set marking workflow state” from "With selected ..." drop-down menu at the bottom of the student list and click “Go” button.
  5. Select “Released” from "Marking workflow state" drop-down menu in the opening page.
  6. Click “Save changes” button.

Students could not see images in questions in the quiz. How can this problem be fixed?

If almost all students see images in the questions and few of them cannot see, it is possible that there could had been an instant connection loss during quiz. When students refresh the page, they should see the image in the questions; if quiz time was not finished or students did not click “finish attempt” button. It does not matter whether the quiz done by safe exam browser or not. The SEB templates in ODTÜClass enable reload in exam.

But there is a very important point that each question has to be in a different page. If questions are in the same page, when students refresh the page all answers students gave will be cleaned. 

Another point should be care about that the size of the image. If size of the image is so big, there is a possibility that image should been unable to load due to internet connection. We suggest you to prepare images using text editor. For example, for a table in the question text, text editor should be used instead of inserting table as an image.

What are Outcomes?

Outcomes are specific descriptions of what a student has demonstrated and understood at the completion of an activity or course. Each outcome is rated by some sort of scale. In simple terms outcomes are similar to sub components of a grade. A grade is an assessment of overall performance that may include tests, participation, attendance and projects. Outcomes assess specific levels of knowledge through a series of statements, that maybe coded with numbers or letters. 

Instructors can create outcomes for their courses and then connect outcomes with activities such as assignments or quizzes. As the outcome is connected with an activity, a new column is  added to gradebook.
