You should submit an electronic copy of your essay to Turnitin (plagiarism detection software) by the appropriate deadline. Please note the exceptions below.
Turnitin submission links are available in the module's Blackboard site.
You will find the Turnitin link to submit your work on the module page in Blackboard. It will usually be on the left hand menu under Assessment and Feedback (PG) - Assignment Submission. Click on the link, and then follow the instructions here to upload and submit.
Important: When submitting your work through Turnitin, you should include your registration number at the start of the submission title.
After submission, the submission screen will show a banner confirming successful upload and a link to download your digital receipt. You should check that your essay has uploaded correctly and we recommend downloading and keeping a copy of your receipt. If the receipt does not appear you should repeat the submission process again.
If you experience any technical problems with Turnitin, please email history.maenquiries@sheffield.ac.uk or phone 0114 22 22552.

Each group should submit one electronic copy of the work (this can be submitted any individual group member) through a Google form:
Shareable files i.e. videos (including Sketchup exports), podcasts, screenshots can be uploaded via the form.
Sketchup - you should set up scenes for your exhibition in Sketchup, export to video and upload the video file. You are also welcome to share your Sketchup file and other components but these are not required and will not be shared with examiners. Scenes can be set up using either the web or desktop version of Sketchup. The video export can only be done using the desktop version, which is available on University managed computers or you can download a trial. If you have issues with the video export contact Beky (history.maenquiries@sheffield.ac.uk) and you can uploaded the Sketchup file as long as your scenes have been set up.
Other online projects i.e. a social media accounts / webpages - you can take screenshots or save PDF versions and upload these. To allow markers to see the 'live' site, you can also save the pages as HTML files and also upload these and/or if you can publish the site in a non-public way then you can include a link in the Google form.
Google sites - we will setup Google Site folders in a shared Drive that the History Team have access to. You should put your site and any associated files in the folder and include the link to the folder in the form. Your access to these folders will be removed after the deadline.
