This entry relates to the Assignment activity.

Removing a source from an originality report will 'recalculate' the similarity index without consideration to the removed source in question. This feature is often used when a paper has been submitted twice or more to Turnitin, and the originality report is reporting a high match (eg 100%) to a previous submission. Removing a source from an originality report may provide a more clear similarity index (percentage). 

Steps

1. Click on the Assignment link
   
   
2. Click the View all submissions button
   
   
3. Click on the Percentage to load the Turnitin Document Viewer
   
   By default the Filter and Settings will load
   
   
4. Click the graph icon to load All Sources
   
   
   
5. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click Exclude sources
   
   
   
6. Select the sources you wish to exclude
   
   
7. Click the Exclude button
   
   

Your originality report will then recalculate (excluding the sources you selected).
