Studiosity is an automated, pedagogically-designed layer over your assessment design, that supports and validates student learning via assessment or formative tasks - putting the focus back on learning, not policing.
It provides a way to support and validate student learning via assessment or formative tasks, for any lane or policy.
For students, it includes formative feedback through their journey - for any tasks. At submission, it includes relevant questions to students about their authorship and learning, giving them the opportunity to show understanding of their work, viva voce-style. This is a significant departure from simply 'evading detection' as a final stage of their assessment journey.
For educators, it is a streamlined process. The same assignment flow, just two inputs aligned to the time of semester or stakes of the assessment.
A valid 'tick' for each student submission indicates validity. Historically, this is where the detective used to start. But now - there are no 'percentage scores' about AI or similarity here. Because surveillance isn’t the point, learning is the point.
How does it work?
1. Set up your assignment as usual in your LMS, and link your assignment to Studiosity.
2. Set your validity threshold and AI policy. That sets the benchmark for the student's authorship continuity and/or cognitive commands, and your AI policy determines how much AI you want as part of assessment design.
3. From your Studiosity Educator Dashboard, see the validation status of your course, unit, paper, with reporting at an individual student level. This fast overview, based on your own choices for assessment design, puts the focus on the students' learning and thinking journey, not end-point security.
What do my students see?
Students upload past work to start to contribute to their authorship journey.
They also use Studiosity as usual to get formative feedback for their drafts any time.
When a student is ready to submit their work, they will be taken into their Studiosity account to upload their sample writing document. Then when they submit their work, they will be asked a few short, timed questions, specific to what's in their assignment, to demonstrate knowledge of their assignment.
At the end of the questions, if a student does not pass validity, they will have the option to try again, or submit anyway.
