[quote=Anonymous]Do your schools use Prodigy as the main learning program or is it a free time activity? I had to look up what our schools use, apparently it’s DreamBox for math but it’s used as a supplemental free time activity. I read the reviews on both apps and they are different but have pros and cons. DreamBox focuses on prioritizing pedagogical quality and conceptual understanding while Prodigy uses heavy gamification for kids to stay motivated. If these programs are used at free time and are not part of the curriculum how bad could they be? [/quote]
