Hi Heather,
Multiple markers is a very heavily requested feature 'this side of the pond', but, according to colleagues attending the last Turnitin conference, iParadigms were not listening to the extent that it 'did not compute'. We're rolling Grademark out across the School and have recently moved to a 'module marking moderation' process instead of a double-blind marking process. The moderation process is slightly better suited to the scenario within turnitin (embedded in Blackboard) where anyone with instructor or Teaching Assistant access can perform all kinds of havok on a turnitin/Grademark assignment. We use anonymous marking and plead with students to spare our admin staff by putting their student ID into the 'submission title' box so that their work can be allocated to markers.
In our view, the benefits outweigh the risks.
Best wishes,
Mike

Subject: [VLES] Turnitin either integrated or not
Anyone using Turnitin either integrated or not with their VLE.
Can you have multiple instructors (people able to mark) on one class?
I got the impression that you could have a teaching assistant on a class (not sure if you can have more than one) that could also mark, but not lots of instructors for the same class - this was in the none integrated version. Would that be true for the integrated version or has Turnitin moved on since I last checked?
Any advice on the best foot forward with Turnitin?
We aren't currently integrated we just have a link from our VLE to the Turnitin log in page.
Thanks
Heather
