the UK population (opposite, top). *** From HEPI / Advance HE, 2019 ** ONS aged 20-24, 2017-18 (Thomas, 2019)
"This reinforces the positive benefits of the service to achieving goals relating to widening access and participation, teaching excellence, and institutional league tables."

(Thomas, 2019)

“The Studiosity tutors have made me more confident when writing, and have also made me aware of various ways to improve my personal style of writing and communication skills more generally. This improved confidence has improved my wellbeing, as I stress less about essays than before my university provided access to Studiosity.”

Academic Integrity

The findings suggest that Studiosity positively impacted students, using seven key areas of plagiarism - feelings, behaviour, attitudes, intentions, skills, awareness, knowledge. (Devlin & McKay, 2018)

"Academic skills and study support services such as those provided by Studiosity should be actively promoted to students. The positive impact of the online study services offered by Studiosity underscore the importance of such services in efforts to minimise and prevent plagiarism."

Helping Your Institution Support Traditionally-Underrepresented Students

"The increase in Course Weighted Average for students who used Studiosity compared to those who didn’t was statistically significant." For students who used Studiosity: 6.13 points higher for Equity students; 4.75 points higher for international students; 5.76 points higher for students from low-SES backgrounds; 14.59 points higher for Aboriginal and TSI students.

Curtin University (Hulcup, 2019)

International students are more likely to have changed behaviour around academic literacy and integrity after using Studiosity.

(Devlin & McKay, 2018)

Greatest GPA gains were amongst students with lower entry rank from high school.

James Cook University (Lynch, 2017)

Low-SES, commencing, and regional-remote more likely to be users.

The University of Adelaide (Levy, 2020)

Significant use by mature and disadvantaged students users.

(Thomas, 2020)

Student Satisfaction

%

of students were satisfied in a set of 14,861 feedback interactions.

(Brodie, Sachs, Tisdell, 2020)

%

stated they have referred peers to Studiosity.

(Devlin & McKay, 2018)

"Studiosity users were more satisfied with their course overall and in relation to their assessment and feedback than the average respondents to the NSS survey in England. These findings are particularly significant in light of the demographic composition of survey respondents, as particular groups who have poorer experiences and outcomes are over-represented." (Thomas, 2019)
