How do students see their similarity score?

If you are using Turnitin on assignments in your course, consider adding the Turnitin widget to your course homepage. This will provide student awareness of the tool, access to resources, as well as easy access to the Assignments list page in their Talon course. Their similarity score and report (instructor setting permitted) will be available on the assignments list page. 

If the widget is not added to the homepage, students would need to click on the Progress tool > Assignments > find the assignment title and click on it. Then, click the Cancel button in order to get to the Assignments list page. And on the Assignment list page, they still need to click the submissions link to see their submissions.  That's a lot of clicking.
