Create an Assignment
- Head to Journey > Assignments.
- Click on New assignment in the top right corner.

Note
- In Turnitin, it's only possible to upload one file. This means that for multipart assignments students will need to merge all content into one document.
- If the assignment requires students to upload various file formats, it might be a good idea to create multiple Turnitin assignments. Alternatively, you can create an assignment in Handin which will allow students to upload numerous files and file types.
