Most student submissions made to Myplace will be submitted to Turnitin as part of the University's plagiarism detection process, and similarly at other institutions. 

When part of a submission at another institution, matches with a submission made from Strathclyde, the some of the match information is shared via the Turnitin UI with the staff.

They may choose to request a full copy of the matched submission made at Strathclyde, and in these cases you will receive a Turnitin UK Paper View Request.

Tip

All "teaching" staff on a course will receive a copy of this request if it is made, so you should coordinate with any other staff as necessary

The email should have the title TurnitinUK paper View Request, and the body text will look something along the lines of :
