UNSW and study-support provider, Studiosity (a CMM advertiser) are jointly funding research on on-line, on-demand academic assistance for students. Studiosity’s Chief Academic Officer Judyth Sachs and UNSW maths education maven, Chris Tisdell will lead.

“If learning with technology and ‘being digital’ through on-demand feedback and support is going to be a central pillar to the pedagogical mission of universities, then there must be compelling research and evidence that it can form a workable strategy for the student experience,” the project brief states.
