Setting the Date
You can chose when the assignment will be open for students to submit. Most of the time, I set this for the entire quarter. When I don't want students to participate in the assignment any longer I can hide it.
Set the date by clicking on the drop downs. Notices the time is also available. Sometimes I don't want students to start an activity until class time or want to close the activity at say 5pm.
You can also click the little box to disable the dates.

Turn-it-in Specifics
Use the drop-down arrows to select specifics. If you have a question about a specific line, typically there are little question mark buttons that can help.
Allow Resubmitting: allows for students to see their turn-it-in results, make changes, and then submit the assignment again.
EMail Alerts to Teachers: means that each time a student uploads an assignment you will get an e-mail. Personally I turn these features off because I don't want to get a bunch of e-mail alerts.
Maximum size: shouldn't matter. A 1MB word document would be HUGE!
Use Turnitin Submission: SHOULD BE MARKED AS YES
Show Turnitin score to student: It is generally helpful for students to see their turnitin score immediately. This helps students learn from their mistakes. GENERALLY THIS SHOULD BE SET TO ALWAYS
Show Turnitin report to student: This too should GENERALLY THIS SHOULD BE SET TO ALWAYS as it provides students with immediate feedback.
