Moodle Direct V2 is the latest version of the Moodle Direct integration for Turnitin. Moodle Direct V2 installs separately to the original Turnitin Moodle Direct plugin within Moodle so that it can be used in parallel.
Key New Features
- PeerMark - PeerMark is now integrated into the Turnitin Assignments and is accessible from the inbox for instructors and students.
- Rubrics - Instructors can now attach their own rubrics to Turnitin Assignments and access the Rubric Manager, Students can also view any rubric that is attached to an assignment.
- Quickmarks - An instructor's Quickmark manager (used within GradeMark) can now be accessed from within their Moodle environment.
- More informative Inbox screen - An assignment inbox screen is now organised so that much more information is readily available and combined on to one screen.
- Quick editing - Certain assignment details (e.g. dates and marks) can be edited quickly in the inbox without having to go to a specific edit screen.
- Drag and drop submissions - Users can now submit via drag and drop. They will also be provided with an extract of their submission as proof that it has been submitted to Turnitin.
- Class Migration Tool - Instructors and administrators can now recreate classes they have on Turnitin which may have existed in previous integrations or created through the Turnitin website.
Inherited features from v1
- Multi-part Assignments - Each Turnitin Assignment may consist of up to 5 parts, parts can be configured to have start dates, due dates and post dates independent of one another.
- Real Turnitin Users - The integration maps Moodle users to real Turnitin user accounts for both Instructors and Students, there is the option to disable student emails should an institution not wish to have students log in to Turnitin rather than Moodle.
- GradeMark / Moodle Grade Book integration - Grades are synchronised between Turnitin's GradeMark and the Moodle grade book.
- Anonymous Marking - Anonymous marking allows student names to be masked from instructors up until the post date.
- Troubleshooting / Diagnostics - Diagnostic mode allows administrators to identify bugs and communication issues by enabling API call logs and displaying line numbers within error messages

Choose whether to allow the creation of Peermark Assignments
(This is only available to those that have Peermark configured for their account)

How do you configure Peermark? is this something TII does, or we do?
Other side questions:
Is the documentation here https://docs.moodle.org/30/en/Turnitin%27s_Moodle_Direct_Integration_(Administrator_Guide) up to date? I was unsure of the different names (turnitin basic, turnitin direct etc)

You will need to configure Peermark at the account level. You can enable this by logging in to your account from turnitin.com and 'edit account settings' you will also need to enable this within Moodle too, you can enable this in the plugin config settings. Once configured you will be able to create a Peermark assignment http://guides.turnitin.com/03_Integrations/Turnitin_Partner_Integrations/Moodle/Moodle_Direct_V2/Direct_V2_Integration_Student_User_Manual/05_Writing_a_PeerMark_Review
We are finding that Apple Mac users cannot view reports via Moodle (by clicking on the similarity score percentage). In Safari the browser opens a new tab or window but nothing is displayed and the browser seems to hang with the blue loading progress bar on or around the "or" in the sentence "Search Google or enter an address". Sometimes a small square briefly displays in the top left corner of the webpage.
On the same system, browser and browser session viewing the report directly via turnitin.com DOES work.
Same issue on Chrome (confirmed) and FireFox (user-reported, unconfirmed at this stage)
We have version 2015040102 of the Turnitin plugin.
Any advice appreciated!!
Thanks,
Andrew
I want to hide the "Grade" column as we don´t want to display any numeric score in Moodle. Could please give me a tip on which part of the code I should modify?
Thank you very much for your advice.
Mari Cruz
We don't hide it unless GradeMark is not enabled, if you select none for the grade in the assignment settings though the column will always show "N/A" and not a grade given in GradeMark.

I was aware of that, however, we use a grade in Moodle so that students-and moderators-can see the final mark of the assignment in the "Overall grade" column,
We use the following score:
30 - Moodle shows "Resubmit" in the Overall grade column
60-Moodle shows Pass
100 -Moodle shows Distinction.
Because students find confusing the score numbers that appear in the Grade column, we would like to hide that column
Thanks,
We have tickets with the Engineering team to test the plugins with Moodle 3.1. All being well we are aiming for a released at the end of July.
Thanks

We have a Moodle site with Turnitin Direct 2. This summer we are moving the Moodle site to a new install, on a new server, with a new Moodle site name. We will move all the existing courses which are connected to Turnitin. Ideally we would like to move the link with Turnitin across as well, so that the old courses that are on the new Moodle site will still be linked to their Turnitin assignments. Do you have any advice on how we might achieve this move?

from Turnitin website
https://guides.turnitin.com/03_Integrations/Turnitin_Partner_Integrations/Moodle/Moodle_Direct_V2
it stated that "Supports Moodle’s built-in plagiarism detection thereby allowing access to Turnitin functionality from within Moodle assignments" for moodle direct v2 module. Do you know how to enable built-in plagiarism from within Moodle assignments?
Yours
Ivan
You have to install another plugin: https://moodle.org/plugins/plagiarism_turnitin to use Turnitin within a Moodle Assignment. Before you can use it though, you'll have to enable Plagiarism which is under Advanced Settings when logged in as an admin.
