Illuminate Education, a leading K-12 student performance solution, is partnering with Turnitin, a leading provider of academic integrity and assessment solutions. Together, they will equip teachers with knowledge and resources to encourage academic integrity and promote effective assessment creation and delivery in remote learning environments. In partnering, Illuminate Education and Turnitin will work to increase educators’ knowledge, use, and application of assessment resources and tools.
“As remote learning continues across the U.S., it’s important that teachers are able to successfully evaluate student growth and promote quality formative assessment creation and delivery,” said Christine Willig, CEO at Illuminate Education. “This includes teaching students the importance of academic authenticity and integrity, and we are eager to partner with Turnitin to achieve this.”
Illuminate Education offers solutions that help educators assess learning, identify needs, align targeted supports, and monitor growth for each and every student.
“Through our relationship with Illuminate Education, Turnitin will extend resources and tools to help educators engage students in the writing process, provide personalized feedback, and assess progress over time,” said Aaron Yaverski, Vice President of Partnerships at Turnitin. “We will work together to promote best practices for creating, delivering, and evaluating assessments in online learning environments.”
Turnitin’s products are used by educators to guide students towards higher standards of integrity and to help them develop original thinking skills.
