What is Studiosity?
Studiosity is an online writing feedback service and a live chat service, available 24 hours a day/ 7 days a week/ 365 days a year. You can submit to or connect with the Studiosity service for free up to 8 times each academic year (in 2022/23) – for either writing feedback or online chat (or any combination of the two):
- Online Writing Feedback Service: you can upload an extract of your writing (up to 2500 words) and you will receive feedback outlining ways in which you can develop your academic work.
- Connect Live Chat Service: you can ask a question about your academic writing, study or research skills – interacting with a tutor via text chat and an interactive whiteboard, or using the new voice chat function using your microphone.
In the 2022/23 academic year (1st August 2022 - July 31st 2023), you can upload up to 8 samples of work of up to 2,500 words each (or a combination of 8 submissions and chats with Connect Live). Please be aware that we are not able to grant anyone additional submissions to Studiosity, so aim to plan how you can best use these 8 feedback opportunities across the academic year.
