Welcome to Wittenborg Online

Turnitin at Wittenborg allows you to resubmit your assignment multiple times by overwriting the previous submissions, until the due date. This means that if you have submitted a wrong document, you can resubmit again by uploading the correct document. The newly uploaded document will overwrite the previous one. You can resubmit many times until the deadline. This feature of overwriting previous submissions ensures that your module teacher will only receive the latest submission for checking.

There is no extension of deadline for submitting assignments online. It is the student's responsibility to submit the assignment on time. Many problems can surface at the last minute, such as technical glitches, failed internet connection, system or software failure etc.

It is better to upload your assignment one or two days before the deadline, so that in case you encounter technical problems, you have sufficient time to find alternative ways to submit your assignment. If the internet connection in your area is weak or unstable, it is best to find a library or a computer shop as an alternative. 

If you are still not able to solve your technical issue, please contact Helpdesk at least 30 minutes before the deadline, with the name of the module assignment and screenshot(s) of the exact technical issue. Request put after the deadline will not be attended to.

Due to the current situation, attendance requirement will not be re-introduced. The participation requirement has been revised as follows:

•  The participation requirement for modules that are assessed using a submission: Submission of a draft of the assignment by Friday of Week 4 of the Block (after the Project Week)
•  The participation requirement for modules that are assessed using a Type 1 assessment (written exam): Submission of an assignment, chosen by the teacher by Friday of Week 4 of the Block (after Project Week). The assignment can be powerpoint slides, digital/handwritten poster, a video presentation etc.

Students must have completed this participation requirement (sufficiently) in order to be allowed to submit the final assignment.

Please refer to the information in the respective Module Online Area for more details about the participation requirement.

IBAN stands for International Bank Account Number and is a number attached to all accounts in the EU countries. It is made up of a unique code that identifies the country in which the account is opened, the account holder's bank and the account number. The IBAN helps to make the process of cross-border payments easier and faster. The bank assigns an IBAN to your account. You need to use the IBAN when sending interbank transfers or wiring money from one bank account to another, especially across international borders.

The structure of the IBAN is as follows: The country code NL / 2-digit control number / 4 letters that identify the bank / 10 digits, which consist of the current account number supplemented with zeros.

Example of a Dutch IBAN:  NL73 INGB 123 456 78 00
