Turnitin has launched a new version of its Similarity Report. This upgrade is designed to provide an enhanced user experience with an intuitive interface and improved support for assistive technologies. With this new update, it will be easier for faculty and students to interpret results and strengthen academic writing skills.

New features that are included in this new version:

• User-friendly, accessible design: The new report features a user-friendly interface, a streamlined layout, and in-app guidance. These improvements aim to offer an inclusive user experience.
• New match categories: Turnitin has introduced new categorization of match types in the report to make it easier for you to understand and identify issues in student papers. This enhancement will save you time and effort in interpreting results.
• Actionable insights for targeted feedback: The upgraded report includes more useful integrity checks. These checks will enable you to quickly distinguish between intentional misconduct and teachable moments. This will provide more time for meaningful and tailored feedback that addresses students’ specific needs.
