Blackboard Ultra (Faculty) - Turnitin Assignments: Edit a Multipart Assignment

You can edit a Turnitin assignment in Blackboard Ultra by accessing the assignment's menu in your course content or launching the Turnitin LTI settings. Note that Turnitin states parts of a multipart assignment generally cannot be added, reordered, or deleted once the assignment is created, but you can edit individual settings and details per part.

3. Select Edit from the drop-down menu.
