If you use Turnitin as part of your students’ assignment submission process you may have noticed a change in the interface. You can switch back to the old interface to get through grading for this term, however, you will eventually need to use the new interface when Turnitin disables it in July 2017.

First, how to return to the old interface:
When you open a paper in Turnitin, there will be a link on the bottom of the screen to “Return to Turnitin Classic” (outlined in the screenshot below).

 

 

 

 
All the controls you have used in the Classic interface are available in the new interface, they are accessed from a different location. To make the transition easier, the color coding of the tools is the same. So the blue icons on the right side of the screen link to the GradeMark tools (1 in the screenshot below) and the red icon links to the originality report (2 in the screenshot below). The gear icon (3 below) provides access to the download and submission information tools.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

When you click on one of the tool icons, the tool opens on the right side of the screen, and displays and functions the same way the old interface did.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The tools all function the same way as they have in the past, just the way you access them has changed.
