[quote=Anonymous]Teacher popping in for some quick input. As a diagnostic tool, and if used properly, I think the I-Ready is great. However, that means you have to use it PROPERLY. That includes teachers being able to assign homework on it, using the growth monitoring aspect of it, etc. But most schools - mine included - only use it for testing three times a year. This is an unfair assessment because there's nothing really to base it on. For example, if a student who tested 9th grade is suddenly testing 7th...that's a huge loss. Why isn't that being reflected in classwork or homework - or even other assessments? Was the student having a bad day? Did the test itself glitch? There's too many variables. But when used with its software and you can actually track growth and data...then yeah, I-Ready is actually great. It's just that most schools won't pay for the whole thing. :( [/quote]
