This site turned my school life into a…

This site turned my school life into a living hell.
I've been stuck using i ready since kindergarten. First it was "Okay class, lets have one i ready lesson done this week." to "If you don't get 45 lessons in a week, you loose your whole school field trip to the bowling alley, and ISS, and to complete the package, lunch detention. This site drains the life out of me and my friends. We literally learn nothing, and on top of that, they've been selling student data to third party places (The student data includes facial expressions, and tracing keyboard movement.) I think they should ban all things like this and keep hands on teaching the number one priority and get their lazy asses off their spinny office chairs.

Who even thought of this this is a form of torture

Lord, I have used this website and it is terrible. It does not help the kid improve at all. The kid struggles throughout the lesson and it does not help one question wrong and it’ll give you a whole yap session before you can answer again in math OK in ELA they say let’s say that there’s a paragraph about recycling in the end it asked you what was the paragraph about and it says recycling and so on it does not help improve the child. It is not personalized learning and ever since they came out for I ready pro Lord. Since when did a website who did not care about a child mental health start caring about relaxing and breathing exercises there used to be games in the diagnostic not anymore. Now they provide these useless breathing exercises which do not help the child that sits there let it play and then moved on. What is this who thought of it look what were we thinking when we decided to put mindfulness in a website that literally does not care about a child mental health child children have ended up having anxiety and have a cry just out by seeing that I already logo or the Fugly characters that are provided in the children’s K5 version and I ready pro makes it twice as worse. They’re used to be characters in some sort of game just for the child to relax now awards are just some stupid profile which the child does not really care about on their profile picture. someone banned this and they just got sued for leaking data and selling it to other third-party companies for commercial reasons they literally spy through your camera and gather your facial expressions throughout the whole lesson and just sell it and why would we do this to children like I have three daughters and they have to do this mandatory every week for 30 minutes they steal your browsing data and so on like this is supposed to be a website for children who are trying to learn I have no words someone ban this

Clicking simulator

Clicking simulator
99% Of the time I spend on i-ready is clicking the "next" button or watching pointless animations.

Need more improvements

In my opinion Iready can make students look at screen for over 45mins and also look at the animations for long periods of the time. Its not smooth for the students pace too. I think Iready needs to improve if the review wants to be better.

Not even worth one star

Not even worth one star. This is the worst program we could ever use. Im currently an 8th grader, i have to take these pointless diagnostics 3 times a year, technically 6 because both math and reading is required. Why cant we do placement based on grades and state testing like we used to. This program gives us things that most of use have never learned, and then get low scores. For example i was getting vocabulary I dont know, and got a 613 (lower than my last reading diagnostic score) I have written an essay in one day and got a 100/100. These test should not decide whether Im on my grade level, my grades and state tests should determine that. Grades and state tests should determine that for everyone. (This does not include a test you screwed up but know and have to retake, this is your overall grade history) Screw iready. And also, SELLING OUR STUDENT DATA?! WHAT THE HECK. NO PERMISSION, NO CONSENT. THEY ARE SELLING SENSITIVE STUDENT PERSONAL DATA.

this is torture.

Hi, I’m in sixth grade and I’ve been using iready since I was in 4th grade, and let me say, it has been TORTURE. I have CRIED at my desk multiple times because of iready. Games was the only good thing about iready. And then they took it away. I am consistently monitored in my school iPad already and this is not making it better. I’m gonna be real, whoever had this idea must be in the rat race.

Well this sucks.

I would give 0 stars if I could. I am 12 and in advanced classes. This program is pure crappy dogwater. It is tortuous and the reason I hate school. Please take the power from their building and let I Ready die. I, along with many other students hate this crap. Pls ban Iready.

Help

I will be very honest, this is just a modernized medieval torture method disguised as a learning website. The lessons are repetitive, uninteresting, and you learn absolutely nothing, and my school expects me to do 2 lessons on this and at least 45 minutes. Maybe I could last 45 minutes on i-Ready Reading, but definitely not on i-Ready Math. Seriously, I'm beginning to think schools see students as a statistic rather than actual human beings if they use this.

I-ready is a bad website for kids.

Luckily, my school does this only twice a year, the first 2 for the diagnostic. In my first I-ready in 6th grade, I didn't even get to see my score. I only got to see it when I finished the 3rd I-ready I did, being called over by the teacher to see my new and improved score. If I had seen my score before, I would've already improved more and know what place I needed to improve at. The monsters that you have at breaks and the start of the diagnostics, seems like it's for kids. We also have to do this for about an entire hour. An entire hour of our lives wasted on a random website to see where we are in our learning. Some kids who had a bad day and weren't doing well will have to take the I-ready again w/o context. It's not teaching, it's pressuring kids who need help and not giving them the help they need.
