What Socratic is good at
Socratic, made by Google, answers homework questions from a photo and points to explanations and videos across several subjects.
Use Socratic for
A quick explanation of a school-level question, free.
Where students need more
- Aimed at school-level questions rather than university reading.
- It answers a question; it does not work through your own material.
- Nothing is saved as revision.
Switching from Socratic
Where StudiSpace is the better fit for the same coursework, and where Socratic still is.
Switch if
- Your material is university reading rather than school-level questions.
- You want your own lectures worked through, not a general explanation.
- You want the work saved for revision.
Stay with Socratic if
- You want a quick free explanation of a school-level question.
- You are helping with homework rather than revising.
What the switch looks like
- 1Upload the reading or the slides instead of photographing a question.
- 2Take the notes it writes and edit them.
- 3Generate a quiz at your course's level, not the question's.
- 4Return to the set before the exam rather than starting again.
