Access to TurnItIn reports – Wednesday, 2nd May

Saturday, May 5th, 2012

Update: Wednesday, 9th May

We are still working on the issue. Please remember that the TII self-check is optional and you can submit your assignment without doing a self-check first.

However, if you do want to check, the old TII self-check in our previous submission system is still available at http://tlcadmin.une.edu.au/esubmission/check and can be used as an alternative.

___

Update: Monday, 7th May. The problem remains unresolved. We are still working on the issue.

___

There is an ongoing problem with accessing TurnItIn self-check (student) reports.

We hope to have this issue resolved as soon as possible.

Apologies for the inconvenience.
