Your Turnitin guidance is moving!
We’re migrating our content to a new guides site. We plan to fully launch this new site in July. We are making changes to our structure that will help with discoverability and content searching. You can preview the new site now. To help you get up to speed with the new guidance structure, please visit our orientation page .
Account statistics term definitions
All statistics are reflective of active classes within the date range specified prior to the statistics report being downloaded. The account statistics report covers active classes with a start date before or during the specified date range and an end date during or after the specified date range.
Full report definitions
Master Account: The source account of several sub-accounts. If there are no sub-accounts under the master account, the report’s Master Account and Account columns will hold the same name and ID. As a master account does not have a parent account, the Parent Account column will remain blank.
Parent Account: The umbrella account for multiple institutional or departmental accounts. Instructors cannot join this account directly but must be added to an institutional or departmental account. The Parent Account column will remain blank if the account is a master account.
Account: The individual Turnitin account that instructors can join and find access to Turnitin products. An account may be either a sub-account or a master account.
Month: Each month within your date range will appear in a separate row of the report. For example, if you specify January 14th to March 19th as your date range, the report will contain three rows of statistics. The first row will display statistics for 18 days into January, the second row will display statistics for all of February, and the third row will display statistics for 19 days into March.
Active Classes: The number of classes that have had any activity (submissions, marks, assignment creation, new students, etc.) within the date range specified.
