The new UI of the Assignment Inbox makes no sense!

I'm an instructor who has been Turnitin for some time now and the new changes to the way the website works do not make much sense to me.

 

First, yesterday I noticed the same issue Gomer had posted in this topic: https://turnitin.forumbee.com/t/q6y37d2/tii-now-unusable . The process of assignment submission done by instructors has become a lot more time-consuming.

Today, I found out that after you finish this tedious process, you're greeted with this assignment inbox:

Why there would be a need for a tiny scroll box inside the already scrollable webpage, I have no clue. As of now, this change affects the usability of the Assignment Inbox badly.

 

It's frankly quite frustrating to use Turnitin with these new changes.

    Hi Khánh Nguyễn Bảo
    What browser and device are you using? I've shared your concerns with product marketing and they were unable to replicate this problem, nor has this happened in my test account. Even when I reduced the size of the window, I had the scroll bar on the side. Have you tried a different browser? I am using Chrome. And I assume that there's no way to adjust that bottom bar to allow for better viewing? 

    Sorry for all the questions; hopefully we can help you figure this out.

      Karen Smith Hi, I've been browsing Turnitin on my laptop running Windows 10, using Chrome too.  Just now, I tried logging in on Microsoft Edge, and got the same scroll box issue. The problem persists on Chrome today still. And no, I am unable to extend the bottom bar, as expected.

       

      Hopefully you guys can figure out why this is happening soon. I appreciate your effort of reaching out.

    This is absolutely adding more time to my grading. I cannot get a larger window and it moves past names far too fast, so I'm left clicking little moves to work through 90+ students.

    I also can't see a large swath of class any longer. I use the visual of where I'm at out of the 25 students per page as motivation to keep going.
