<p>I’m supposed to turn in a paper to Turnitin for one of my classes that’s due in 2 weeks, and when I click the link that’s on the side of MyUCLA it says</p>
<p>“No Fall 2012 classes found with TurnItIn enabled.”</p>
<p>I’ve never used Turnitin at UCLA before, so I’m not sure if it’s something I’m doing wrong or something on the teacher/TA’s part. Am I supposed to go somewhere else to turn it in, or should I just wait and see if the link on MyUCLA changes?</p>
<p>Can you email your professor? Maybe they haven’t activated it yet.</p>
<p>He made it very clear that he didn’t want anyone to come to him with questions about turnitin because he “doesn’t have the same MyUCLA account as we do” lol Also, there’s no discussion for this class so there’s no TA for me to ask either</p>
<p>Maybe you’re right about him not activating it yet though, I’m just kind of worried since there’s less than two weeks left before it’s due, and I would’ve thought it would be activated by now.</p>
<p>I think it maybe has not been activated yet since there is still more than a week to go.</p>
<p>Dude, 2 weeks is so much time left. It’s like almost 20% of the whole quarter. Turnitin is very simple. You click on it from your Study List on MyUCLA. If that doesn’t work, it’s not your fault.</p>
<p>haha alright, I just thought they activated them at the beginning of the quarter or something.</p>
<p>Thanks for all the help everybody!</p>

<p>Do we have to wait until the “post date” to see our grades?</p>
<p>Every instructor uses Turnitin differently. Yours may not post grades on it. </p>
<p>Some instructors may use Turnitin just to check for plagiarism, and still require you to turn in a paper copy for grading. Others may use Turnitin for peer-editing and reviews, and post grades and originality reports. Your instructor may or may not post grades on Turnitin.</p>
<p>myucla → studylist → scroll down to the class → click turnitin</p>
<p>You’ll be redirected to a turnitin page where you’ll be automatically logged in</p>
<p>From there, it’s idiot-proof.</p>
