Not ready for prime time
This has some positives to it but progression is slow.
No assessment should take the student multiple hours to complete. We have students that have been working hours on this app and have yet to be placed at a level. It is great that they can test out of areas, but it takes hours to do so.
When the app crashes, and it will, it resets progress to the beginning of the lesson. Page 1 or page 15 the student will have to go back and do all of it again. For an app that requires constant internet connection it seems like progress should be saved progressively.
For an app that uses fluency their pronunciation of works leaves adults guessing what word is being said. Names shouldn’t be a main focus on words either. Ann can be Anne
This should not be used in the public education system until bugs are worked out and tested with the age group it is designed for use with.
