Forget it, i-Ready should be Exterminated and brutally tortured

Curriculum Associates - Forget it, i-Ready should be Exterminated and brutally tortured

A while back (like a day ago) I made a review named "i-Ready Should be Erased from the History of Man." After finishing the diagnostic, I checked back and i-Ready has just become total crap. It appears that Curriculum Associates (creators of i-Ready) tried to make it as cheap as possible to maximize on profits. Here's everything that's wrong with the online program.

POOR QUALITY: LESSON DESIGN

Pretty much any school, no matter the size or funding, has this shady program. They are really convinced at how this improves students. However, most teachers and parents never get to see what life is for the students. From a teacher's perspective, the advanced tools and options actually make it appear that it on high budget. However, what they don't see is stupid. It is the definition of cheap and makes kids feel like zoo animals in a metal cage.

The drawings look like they used one of those free animation programs or even paint. The characters are poorly animated and most of the time they just talk or move their mouths. And the fact they failed on such a simple task is embarrassing. After all, practically every school pays for it. Yes, it is a paid service, like dozens per class. You can tell from the photo the terrible state of the art. There are clearly two layers, one of which is the non-animated background that is in a different style than the characters themselves (what?) The other layer houses the characters. In this case, it is Jake and Pepper Jackie (Sweet T is missing.)

And what? What kinds of names are Pepper Jackie and Sweet T? They are attempting to be cool, but learning is serious and should be taught that way, while being engaging (many ways to do it.) That's hard, and that explains why it's so hard to be a teacher (increase their salaries!) But clearly some badly drawn Jake cannot skilled enough. The quality of their lessons and voice acting that isn't fluent with the animations makes portrays learning as a freaking joke.

DIAGNOSTIC: POOR DESIGN

They made the diagnostic more minimalistic, more fresh and modern. But that's just deceiving, because a fresh look makes it seem much has changed. But not much has, and what has is for the worse.

They have this thing in which you click buttons to see a short video on how something on the text functions. But it's SO STUPID. It's like "how do you change a tab" or "How do you play a video." However, you'll expect kids on computers to have at least used google once. Right? And the worst part is you can't skip it. It is monotonous and wastes time. Many high grades 7-12 have done the diagnostic many times. Even if you do it twice, thrice, or ten times, you still have to click these buttons that review information that even a moron would understand. And since schools aren't just going to buy laptops to use them only three time through the entire year, it would be logical that they have other experiences with them that would foster the ability to use a freaking web browser. I mean, every kid has a phone these days. It's so bad I had to devote an entire paragraph to the issue.

Plus, they have this *** *** thing called brain break. It does the opposite of that though, it is infuriating. The resolution is low and grainy and G.O's waist disappears in one scene. The balloon and the brain are badly drawn, and little and laggy animations. It wastes time, and if you're in a hurry, well to bad. No skipping allowed. I'm sure they just chose breathing because the people behind i-Ready are so lazy they can't even use google. Because when people think of relaxing, everyone thinks of breathing. It is ineffective and most people just do something else. The break also makes wild assumptions like every quarter of the quiz your brain mysteriously shut down.

The last thing mainly applies to the reading section. Literally every time the questions and the stories stay the same. There's always some invisible dude, some sleigh for some idiot, picking fruits, washing them, some speeches, Pluto is sad because it got fired from planet fitness, and why Americans are retards for supporting bottled water. The questions don't change, and basically you just know the answers and what the story is about. And that disrupts i-Ready's perfect system, well as advertised. Oh, and let's talk about THAT too! Well before one last diagnostic issue.

The progress bar, an important design element, was not updated. Now it has a deformity bug that makes i-Ready's programmers seem inept.

ADVERTISING

I'm stopping here. I'm planning to continue LATER.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
Where to start? Bad animations, horrible sound, boring teaching, repetitive learning, no help what so ever, waste of time, basically one of the the worst things to ever be born by school. My school forces me to twenty of these in a month time span and GOD DO THEY TAKE FOREVER. My school is an all year school and we get break every now and then, and what does my school do? MAKE US DO THESE *** LESSONS THAT TAKE FOREVER, WHY CALL IT BREAK IF WE HAVE TO DO THIS PIECE OF *** *** EVERY TIME? Anyway I see no reason why we should keep this crap up, I-ready is so bad I feel the need to throw this computer out the damn window.

Same here, I think everyone should agree. Seriously, I Ready doesn't teach us anything.

On the quiz part of the lesson there is always that question that has two answers that are SO similar. They also try acting all cool by saying phrases teens these days say.

So this retarded AF program put my friend who achieved highest math scores for children and adults, is doing adding and subtracting *** decimals. Same with me. I ready sells information and it is *** retarded. Whoever made iready was some common core basic *** assfag who sucked the government's *** because he didn't have One if his own. After blowing the government, he made a *** and a halve of a program that increased teen suicide rates by 99% and makes anyone who hears the word "IReady" know imeadeatly that it is time to either live up his *** tie a *** noise, or to do an iready and be found in the computer room after the teacher leaves the room to grab the gradebook with 7834 self inflicted gunshot wounds and 7 grenade wounds.

Well.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
So, for a bit of context, I spend grades 3-7 in a school that used i-Ready. This is my first year at a different school, where we don't use i-Ready or any system of education/"morals" that schools employ, i.e. the Seven Habits (which my old school also used). Did I mention that last year I spent up to 4 or 5 hours a day staring at my computer, doing this? I'm in algebra this year, and let me tell you, it's bull. EVERYTHING I should have learned last year, like basic multiplication/rules/formulas/concepts, I. NEVER. LEARNED. THEM. We're starting an exponent unit here, and the teacher keeps talking about stuff like "if the bases are the same you multiply" and formulas and crooks and roots and oh dANG IS THAT A FORMULA WITH A VARIABLE IN THE EXPONENTS SLOT. Algebra is confusing, but once you get the hang of it, it can be fun. That's universal. So what makes these people think that having a one-track, glitchy, eye-molesting computer lesson teach someone algebra is a good idea? At my old school, you could *** your way through everything if you tried a bit harder than the average deadbeat in your class, who did not try at all. Easy A's, or with that school's grading system, easy 3's. That doesn't work forever. Fast-forward and entire school year and hours of i-Ready later, to algebra, and you have a confused 8th grader trying to understand everything when all she did last year was multiplication facts (yes, I did. I learned those in 5th grade. The 6th graders didn't, and we had to share classes.) and i-Ready. Now I have actual homework, use a textbook, paper/pencil, calculators, a whiteboard, all that wonderful stuff. i-Ready did not prepare me for any of this. It prepared me for technology addiction, procrastinating, being lazy, getting away with bare minimum effort, and an inability to stay focused on anything, academic or athletic. I can't get away with bare minimum now. I have to try, I have to study, I have to memorize. i-Ready did NOTHING for me. I wasted countless hours staring at a screen, all the "information" bouncing right off me. I WASTED MY UPPER ELEMENTARY/LOWER MIDDLE SCHOOL YEARS ON THIS AWFUL WASTE OF TIME. Kids Clapping don't Clapping learn Clapping from Clapping i-Ready. It's unengaging, forced, boring, and appeals to a very narrow audience, if any at all. In my small old school, approximately like... (counts on fingers) ...two or three people liked it out of a student body of 200+. I know for a fact that nobody else did, everyone else was vocal in their dissent against the aforementioned "learning" program. C'mon, guys. A computer alone cannot teach you[r child]. The program, at its best, is trying to appeal to a demographic dominated by pop culture, rap, and varying interests. It tries, it really does, but pop culture fluctuates too fast and has too much prestige to even resemble i-Ready. i-Ready is like the knock-off "appropriate" rent-a-cool version of pop culture. Why WOULD kids want it? It's garbage to them! To me! I don't want anything to do with these poorly-made, two-dimensional characters! I'm an artist. I love drawing and creating. What they do to this characters is a turn-off, but it's more mocking than anything. They're flat, they're unrealistic, and I'm pretty sure that they're trying to be "representative" have all these different ethnicities, which kinda works, but it's still flat and poorly-made. I'm pretty sure they use text-to-speech too. TL;DR: i-Ready isn't helpful. It's flat and boring. Kids don't like it. Try again, please.

I agree with this student. I had been using I-Ready for math, since it is required.

I answered a question using I-Ready's own logic, and I got it wrong!

Due to that very question, I barely passed I-Ready's quiz. I recommend not wasting your time with what they teach you, unless it actually gets the answer right, and just use a calculator.

Guest

the thing about life is that you have to split the money you make some for you to keep (other stuff i won't go into) and making your company better for example in the gaming industry you need money to make your games better and need money for yourself and the way i ready does it...lets turn this into a fraction Making i ready better 2%/98% used for themslves

Guest

I agree with this student’s opinion of I-Ready. The I-Ready Reading Is forced, politically slanted, and its questions are flawed and convoluted. This program sucks the joy out of reading!

I-Ready is trash, not just trash, but low quality, poorly designed, monotonous, poorly illustrated, glitch-ridden, poorly voice acted, monotone, repulsive, repetitive, useless, a heap of flaming hot garbage that tries to be "relatable" and "cool" and fails miserably. This program has only confused me more on a subject instead of helping me.

The fact that every review for iready has only one star explains how horrible it is.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

Oh boy, where do I begin? How about I point out that there isn't a single good review for iReady in sight?

Nobody likes iReady. Period. That simple. My child has been doing iReady for a couple years now.

When she first started, I thought she was merely complaining, and I forced her to do it. Oh god, I felt so bad. Completely regret my decision. My daughter couldn't even do the lesson.

I was surprised, since she always gets A's in her classes, which I'm very proud of. When I went to her assist her, I saw this horrid website. Crude animation, irritating voice acting, and the fact that they speak so slowly! No wonder my daughter hates it.

I went to the teacher to convince them to not give my daughter iReady, but they insisted that it actually helped them. Do you hear me? HELPED them. Ridiculous.

This doesn't help them at all. The fact that they even tried to include a plot or a story in this is absurd. It just makes it even more confusing. They even tried using slang.

Oh god. I did one of her lessons to try it out, and it was awful. As I mentioned previously, my daughter does very well in her classes. So, this means she has a higher grade in iReady.

You want to know what that means? She has longer lessons. Each one lasts for over an hour. When I call her for dinner, she tells me that she's STILL doing iReady.

What the *** is this? Did the school board really look at this site and go, "Oh, yes, this will definitely help students improve!" Not only that, but ruins interactions between teachers and the outside world. My child is always cramped inside her room, trying to finish her homework, because she has to do it multiple times a week. She barely goes outside at this point.

Additionally, whenever my daughter asks the teacher for help, all they say is, "Let her do another lesson. They explain it in the tutorial." You have to be joking! I feel so sorry for children out there whose parents won't listen to them. I'm so glad that I figured out this entire iReady program was complete {{Redacted}}.

I don't curse much, so this can already tell you how horrible this program is. I'm sure that it'll be a long while until iReady gets removed, or if it ever even will. This generation has gone to {{Redacted}}. Is this how we're going to teach our children from now on?

The world's gonna end up like Idiocracy at this point! I'm confident that the main reason iReady is still here is because they're getting cash. A lot of cash. The people making this program (who don't even put EFFORT into it) are becoming richer by the second, and it's making me disgusted.

God, this ended up a lot longer than I thought. Just displays my anger even more.

Wow, even parents hate the site, but I do too. Wish it got shut down already.

I-Ready is a complete waste of time. If lessons take over an hour with little improvement, that is not okay.

The majority of students and parents feel as if I-ready is not helping.

It takes hours to complete, you get nothing in return, *** I've seen people breakdown because the questions do not make any sense. Get rid of I-Ready.

i got depression from iready

Guest

i do iready and i think i got depression for it

Guest

My deepest condolences. I suggest you look for the I Ready Rebellion (or petition your school) to get rid of this satanic excuse of a program.

(Sorry Satan, didn't mean to insult you.) As it happens the teachers either believe in it like it's a religious cult, or are forced to do it by the administration. We need to erase this program from the anals of history, together.

I-Ready is a perfect program for teachers and students alike.

I-Ready is beautiful with amazing animation and wonderful voice acting. My students love this program and ask to use it on a daily basis. For anyone out there who wants a fun, educational, program that will help students learn, I-Ready is the program for you.

Have you ever done I-Ready?!

Guest

My students cannot stand it. At first they are taken in, but it's too repetitive and my administrator said that Curriculum Associates sold it as an effective "teacher replacement." I kid you not.

Guest

The kids hate it. -an actual student
