- When an administrator adds an instructor (or instructors) to the account instructor list, Turnitin will automatically e-mail the instructor (or instructors) a notification of the addition. If the instructor has not previously used the system a temporary user password will be automatically generated for the instructor and sent in the notification e-mail. If the instructor has previously used the system, he or she will need to use his or her previous password to sign in to Turnitin.
- For each user in your list, you must include the user's e-mail address, last name, and first name in this order: first name, last name, e-mail address.
- Instructor list files can be saved in Microsoft Excel, Microsoft Word, or Plain Text format. Please note Word and text files must contain commas between the instructors' e-mail addresses, last names and first names.
- Instructors can join accounts themselves using the account id and join password. For more information regarding this please view our quickstart videos.
