We have exactly the same problem, and I raised this with Turnitin
yesterday afternoon (no response as yet)
Out of 12 papers submitted, all have originality reports, but 4 are
still waiting for Grademark to become available. In our case, the
missing papers are all .doc and submitted 07-11-08 or 09-11-08.
The Turnitin Instructor manual says:
If the GradeMark icon is greyed out, the paper is not available for
digital assessment. Please wait while the system generates the interface
so that this paper can be marked.
Can't believe we should have to wait this long though. Our lecturer can
access the papers as submitted, so is viewing and grading them that
way, but wants to use Grademark to provide feedback.
Are any other colleagues experiencing this problem?
