In PebblePad, navigate to the workspace in ATLAS. Open the assignment on the Submissions page.

Select the submissions you want to send to Turnitin for the similarity check.

Click "Submit To TurnItIn" in the bottom menu. If you don't see the "Submit to Turnitin" button, ask your [faculty support](https://library.maastrichtuniversity.nl/apps-tools/pebblepad/pebblepad-support/) to set-up Turnitin for this assignment.

Read the information and confirm by ticking the checkbox.

Click "Continue" to submit the selected submissions to Turnitin.

You will receive an email when all submissions are sent to Turnitin. This might take some time, depending on the size and quantity of the submissions.

Once all submissions are send to Turnitin, you need to synchronise the results. Click "Turnitin"

Click "Synchronise with Turnitin now"

The Turnitin columns in the submissions list are now up to date. The first column displays the similarity report score.

The second column displays the grade. At Maastricht University it is not possible to give grades in Turnitin, so this column won't be used.

The third column displays more information. Click on the Turnitin icon.

The overlay shows more information about the similarity. Click "Open Similarity Report in Turnitin"

The similarity report will open in a popup window.

You can find more information about interpreting the results in our step-by-step guide:[How to understand the Turnitin similarity report](https://scribehow.com/viewer/How_to_find_and_understand_the_Turnitin_similarity_report_new_view__o3aNCwoIRxWLvfxI8OazIg) .
