Ok, WHO IS THIS SUPPOSED TO HELP? Of all the 9 Billion people on this entire planet, who is this for? I would not recommend touching this site with a 9 foot pole

As a student, we are forced by the school to submit to this torture. It is repetitive not interactive and slow.
The software makes me hate learning. I would rather be using an abacus.

I ready sucks $#*! it is wrong all the time don't get me started on annoying. F v v v v

This app is terrible! It stresses me out so bad, and makes me just wanna give up. You should be ashamed.

This is possibly the most stressful thing for any modern day student. First of all it trys to have the diagnostic. Which 1 to 2 days of anxiety of not being able to turn it in, isnt learning for students. In my views, this most possibly is the worst option possible, there are constant errors with grammar, answers etc. just go use khan academy for all i care, at least it handles it better.

I ready is the most useles thing i have ever seen! I absolutely hate it. I would much rather use another website.

I-READY IS USELESS AND I AM NOT KIDDING!

You do absolutely nothing to educate students whatsoever! Most of your questions aren't even true. Good job.

I-Ready is a complete waste of time and money. As a parent and teacher, I have seen firsthand the negative impact this program has had on my child's education and the education of my students.

First and foremost, the program's adaptive assessments and personalized instruction are supposed to help students improve their skills in mathematics and reading, but the reality is that it falls short in providing effective instruction. Studies have shown mixed results, with some students making gains while others show no significant difference in performance compared to those who don't use the program.

Additionally, I-Ready's heavy focus on standardized testing creates an unhealthy pressure on students to perform well on these assessments, rather than fostering a love of learning. It turns education into a chore and takes the joy out of learning.

The program's heavy reliance on technology is also problematic. It requires expensive technology and internet access, which not all students have access to. Furthermore, it does not take into account the unique needs and learning styles of individual students, and its lack of flexibility and adaptability to different teaching styles makes it difficult for teachers to effectively use it.

The program's negative impact extends to the teachers as well. It reduces teacher autonomy and creativity in the classroom. Teachers may feel pressured to teach to the test, rather than providing instruction that meets the needs of their individual students. Additionally, I-Ready's heavy reliance on technology can lead to a lack of professional development opportunities for teachers, which can negatively impact their ability to effectively use the program.

Furthermore, the program's heavy focus on data and standardized testing can lead to a reduction in school autonomy and creativity, as schools may feel pressured to teach to the test, rather than providing instruction that meets the needs of their individual students.

In conclusion, I-Ready is a complete disappointment. Its negative consequences for students, teachers, and schools far outweigh any potential benefits it might have. It is a costly and ineffective program that should not be used by schools. I strongly advise parents and educators to look for alternative methods of instruction that better meet the needs of individual students and foster a love of learning.

I am a student and honestly, I do not enjoy it at all, and neither do my classmates. It puts me in level E when I am in an upper grade and the stuff it teaches me is what I learned about in third grade! I recommend that you shouldn't do I -ready.
