Can I request data about my students’ behavior on the platform?
No. As per our privacy policy, we do not share any data from users. You can, however, look at the usage statistics of registered users on their profile.
How do I prevent plagiarism so that students can’t simply remix projects and submit them as their own work?
Projects have a remix history with a description of the changes. Make students aware of this transparency and use this remix history to assess if students put in enough effort.
Can I sign up my students in bulk?
No. This feature is currently not available. Each student will have to sign up individually.
How can I organize and monitor student projects?
Teachers can create a Community Lab and request their students to sign up for this lab.
How can I use this for education?
There are several opportunities, from letting students experience classical experiments to teaching them how to conduct research. We discuss these opportunities in detail at our Education page.
Can I use this to teach in K-12?
Currently, the platform is restricted to users 18 years or older. However, we are considering how we can make this work for K-12 education. In the meantime, you can use the offline editor.
Can I use this to teach in higher education?
Yes. In fact, StudyCrafter has been developed to transform current research methods education and we are looking for partners to implement it in the classroom to evaluate its educational impact. See our Education page.
