On August 1, UFIT will disable access to standalone Turnitin accounts that exist outside of Canvas. This change is being made because the standalone account configuration no longer aligns with updated UFIT security requirements.
After this change, instructors and students may still be able to see the account name when logging in directly through Turnitin, but they will not be able to access classes, assignments, or submissions in those standalone accounts.
Turnitin access for Canvas assignments will continue to be available through the Canvas integration.
For individual paper checks outside of Canvas, instructors and students can use Turnitin Draft Coach through their UF Google account (https://cloud.it.ufl.edu/faqs/using-your-uf-google-account/). To use Draft Coach:
1. Log in to your UF-email Google account.
2. Open a document in Google Docs.
3. Click “Extensions” at the top of the page, next to Help.
4. Select “Turnitin Draft Coach™.
5. Use the panel on the right to run a Similarity Check, Citation Check, or Grammar Guide.
Please note that the Similarity Check allows up to three reviews per paper.
You can access your UF Google account directly through UF’s G Suite site (https://cloud.it.ufl.edu/collaboration-tools/g-suite/) or through the Draft Coach page (https://elearning.ufl.edu/student-help/draft-coach/).
Starting on June 3, 2026, all newly created surveys will automatically default to the New Survey Taking Experience (NSTE). Qualtrics is making this change because NSTE is their modernized survey design. It is built to be faster, more mobile-responsive, and highly accessible. Any new features (e.g. new question types, security options) will only be supported on NSTE going forward.
Existing live surveys will not be affected or visually altered. Copying an old survey or importing a QSF file will preserve the original layout and theme settings, meaning a copy of a Legacy survey will remain Legacy.
If you have any questions, please reach out to e-Learning Support at 352-392-4357 or submit a ticket.
A recent security update to Respondus 4.0 affected how the tool connects to Canvas. The issue has been resolved, but instructors will need to update their settings before publishing or retrieving quizzes in Canvas.
Please follow these steps the next time you use Respondus 4:
- Open Respondus 4 and open the assessment you want to publish
- Go to the Preview & Publish tab
- Select Publish Wizard
- Choose New Quiz or Classic Quizzes
- From the server dropdown, select Add new server
- Select Yes, check for preconfigured settings
- When prompted, enter a new name for the server (do not reuse a previous name)
- Complete the publish process and log in through the Canvas web prompt when prompted
These steps only need to be completed once to re-establish your connection to Canvas.
If you prefer not to reconfigure Respondus, you can also follow the steps in Manual Import of Respondus 4 files into Instructure Canvas and Retrieving questions from Canvas Classic Quizzes.
