How do I view plagiarism assignments in SpeedGrader?

If your institution has enabled a third-party plagiarism detection tool, you may be able to view plagiarism and originality details in SpeedGrader. DocViewer supported file types can be viewed and annotated in SpeedGrader.

Notes:

Canvas does not provide its own plagiarism detection tool. For information or support with using your plagiarism detection tool, contact your institution or the provider of the tool.
If the user interface displays differently than what is shown in this lesson, the Performance and Usability Upgrades for SpeedGrader feature option may have been enabled. For more information, refer to the guide: How do I view plagiarism assignments in SpeedGrader with Performance and Usability Upgrades?
