In a collaborative project between the College Learning Technology Assistants (LTAs; David and Stephen), IT Services (ITS; Catherine Leyland), and Academic Practice Services (APS; Nichola Hayes), a series of resources and guides have been developed to support the use of Blackboard, Turnitin and GradeMark for online assignment submission and marking\/feedback.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

These case studies build on the work the College LTAs began in the summer of 2012, where they developed training sessions<\/a> and supporting take-away postcards (see below) for online marking and feedback using Turnitin and GradeMark.<\/p>\n

In July 2013 the School of Education approached APS for support in their assignment handling and online marking, with a view to reviewing the current workflow and investigating what efficiencies could be made. With a detailed plan and timeline implemented the College LTAs collaborated with ITS in generating the support guides and accompanying videos (uploaded to YouTube).<\/p>\n

The assignment structure for the School of Education requires that students submit their assignments to both Turnitin and Blackboard due to the nature of electronic files they are required to submit. The report\/essay is submitted to Turnitin so the Originality Report is generated, whilst the report\/essay is also submitted to a Blackboard assignment along with supporting files (PowerPoint, audio, video) that are not currently accepted by Turnitin.<\/p>\n

In support of the paper and electronic guides produced for the School, the College LTAs developed and delivered a series of online ‘webinar’s using Adobe Connect to demonstrate the workflow for academics on how to access assignments submitted online, mark online, and provide feedback online. These sessions were recorded and made available to delegates who attended online and those who couldn’t make it. Email, telephone, and at-desk support was also offered for those who could either not attend or who had further questions after the online session ended.<\/p>\n
