New Features
Moderator Impersonation
Similar to the Tutor impersonation this feature allows Moderators to be impersonated from the moderator search page. This is a role that should be enabled in the user settings page if moderator impersonation is required.

Turnitin Reports
This new feature pulls Turnitin assessment scoring from learner submissions into a user-friendly result filterable search and export report page. You can find it in the usual reports section , and it will require the view reports role to access.

Updates
Contact Form Improvements
This update is gave the form inputs on the learner contact add & edit pages an accessibility QA pass - selection inputs will now respond correctly to tabbing and allow options to be typed and selected more easily from keyboard-only navigation.

Web Security Fixes
A recently conducted a security audit on EQUAL identified some XSS vulnerabilities that were in the learner area. We have implemented 2 separate fixes which could allow those XSS vulnerabilities to be exploited.

Bugfixes
Contact Form Fixes
There was a bug in some of the inputs that caused a string value of “true” to be set by default after deleting the existing value, this has been fixed now.

Internal Only Updates
AI Assessor Feature Flag
As part of the development of our new AI Assessor feature we have setup a feature flag to allow for internal testing, this is currently enabled by default for developers only.

AI Assessor “fromConfig” Class
Iterating upon our service container implementation, this internal update builds a single-instanced class for our AI assessor with default configurations that we can access within the application via the service container.

Vue Form Components
For our AI Assessor feature we require some new form and UI elements implemented as reusable Vue components, we have added both a radio form element, and a tabbed-content element as part of this update.
