What is the Post Date referring to?

Once you have created a Turnitin Assignment in your Moodle module you will be asked to set the Start Date, Due Date and Post Date. 

Start Date = when the assignment is open for submissions

Due Date = when the assignment is closed for submissions

Post Date = when your grade and/or feedback is visible to your student group

If you have set the Post Date to match the Due Date, students will see their grade and/or feedback immediately. This may be acceptable for continuous assessments. However, for end-of-semester exams it is advisable to set the Post Date to a date after the examination board for your programme has taken place.

If you have any questions or if you encounter technical issues, please email us at moodle@setu.ie from your SETU staff/student email account.
