Discrepancy between Turnitin and Blackboard Gradebook
Identified - We have been alerted to a discrepancy between Turnitin and Blackboard Gradebook.

Blackboard Gradebook is displaying overdue messages to students despite them having submitted to Turnitin ahead of their deadlines.

The official confirmation for submitting to Turnitin remains revisiting the Turnitin submission point and downloading the receipt.

Further instructions are here: https://faqs.aber.ac.uk/index.php?id=9179

We are working with Blackboard and Turnitin to resolve this issue.

Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience caused and let us know if you have any questions regarding this.
