QuickMark Library

A QuickMark℠ standard editing mark is a commonly used or standard mark that can be used by an instructor when editing or grading papers. Administrators can create and share QuickMark sets through their Turnitin administrator QuickMark library. These marking sets will be available to all instructors on the selected account, but cannot be modified or deleted by the instructors.
