Savvas RealizeReviews 345

This website sucks so much. Every time you get an answer wrong, you keep getting a new one. And if you accidentally put the wrong answer on Final Check but knew the real one, you have to REDO the whole thing which is time-consuming. The website glitches a lot which messes you up.

The software is a glitchy, poorly functioning mess with one of the worst front end interfaces I've seen. A talented web101 highschool student could've done a better job with the front end. And that's not the only thing. The system will mark you wrong if you're off by. *******. If you type "potato" instead of "Potato" it marks you wrong.

I dislike this site with such a violent, bloody passion. Never in my life have I met such an impatient, passive aggressive math site. I waste all of my "points" so I am able to understand the one, specific problem. And for what? To have my problem recreated using different numbers. This is completely unacceptable while completing any form of math, which problems are common to eager students. This completely ruins any aspect of enjoyable learning, or at least as enjoyable as it may be.

The idea on paper is pretty good, but in practice, It just sucks so much $#*! that it can star in its own (EXPLICIT WEBSITE) video. It also likes to break down randomly and stay stuck on the loading screen, and don't get me started on the grading process. If you were to ever to do a math test, May RNGesus have mercy on your soul, because Pearson always wants you to write the EXACT ANSWER, i'm not talking about the processes you do, the grading the bot does just likes to suck (MALE NONO PART) and isn't lenient with its example process. Not worth your time, and i highly advise teachers to stay away from this site, otherwise you're just adding weight on your students shoulders

My class uses this for science, mostly the e-text content. It's a little hard to navigate, but the lessons are OK. I don't really like that you have to "download to complete activity" when the lesson requires drawing or modelling. I'm one of the only students in my class that can actually figure out complete the activity when I download it. I understand that the site is probably being used a lot for distance learning at the moment, but I would really appreciate if they could include a draw function when the lesson includes drawing... I mean they include an annotate and comment function with four different highlighter colors but not a draw function?!
Still a good learning tool.

This website is Extremely Frustrating for both Educators and Students! I use My View with my students and If you have not clicked on all components it still states in Progress. Often times the features do not load, while other times they do load and the components are unable to use. I am a 5th grade teacher in Massachusetts and we are working on Unit 4 Week 3 and my kiddos were excited to start decoding their cryptograms and none of the components were usable! On the main screen, it looks like something is going to pop up (a new window?) but disappears just as quickly. Then under the Weekly Activity, it tells you to drag & drop the letters to decode the message & the letters are able to be dragged but do not stay dropped!
