Educators in Inspera Originality can create new assignments through the Add Units menu in their account. Currently, educators can create and configure two types of assignments.

1. Assignment Submission – This is the default assignment type where students upload documents. Educators can configure originality settings to check for potential plagiarism.
2. Code Similarity – This assignment type is specifically designed for code submissions. Students upload code files, which are then analyzed for similarity against other submissions within the same assignment.

When Assignment Submission is selected as the assignment type, educators can configure the following settings.

   Translation Similarity	Enable to check against sources in other languages for potential similarity. You can select up to 3 languages.
   Contextual Similarity (Enable & Configure)	Enable the ability to check for contextual similarity in meaning and ideas between sentences in the document and those from matching sources. You can configure the contextual similarity threshold to define the percentage at which sentences are considered contextually similar.
   AI Prediction	Enable to check for content potentially generated by artificial intelligence.
   Metadata Analysis	Enable to check document metadata for potential issues.
   Document Archive	Enable to archive received assignment submissions. Archived submissions are referenced in future checks to prevent potential student collusion.
   Late Submissions	Enable to allow late assignment submissions. Configure the specific date and time until which students can submit their assignments.
   Resubmissions	Enable to allow assignment resubmissions. Configure the amount of times a student can resubmit an assignment.
   Excluded Source Criteria	Define the threshold percentage for excluding matching sources from the Originality Report. For example, setting the percentage to 5% will automatically exclude any sources with a match percentage below 5%.
   Anonymous Submissions	Enable the anonymization of the assignment submission process. When enabled, student submission details will be hidden from the Educator interface.
   Exclude Citations	Choose whether or not to exclude citations from the originality check.
   Submission Word Limit	Define the maximum amount of words a submission can contain.
   Include URLs	Enter specific source URLs to check submissions against
   Exclude URLs	Enter specific source URLs to not check submissions against
   Enable Thresholds	Define the percentage at which the Exact Match and Possibly Altered Text classifications take place. Note that the classifications are connected, changing the minimum for Exact Match will automatically adjust the maximum for Possibly Altered Text and vice versa.
   Allow character replacement Exception	This section allows users to exclude specific characters from homoglyph (character replacement) detection. Excluded characters will not be flagged. This gives users more control over which character substitutions should be considered suspicious.
