ALL DUe TO THIS CLASS RING OF A MATH APP. it had only departed from the dock minutes before. AND EVEN I, Jitavious Bonqueqe III, can not BELIEVE that THIS app is for CHILDREN!! my POOR CHILDREN DROWNeD IN THE SCIFI-TANIC. MY box of CHOCOLATES (aged 23 and 25☺☺☺ ) was assigned this CRUMMY, CHEAP, DIDDLY, RAUNCHY, INADEQUATE MONSTROSITY OF AN APPLICATION. Or maybe they are too lazy and just want such Artificial Stupidity to rule the lives of students. If more parents and students can complain to schools and teachers, hopefully, things will improve. Not sure why schools are using sites like this. To be fair, other auto-graded systems are generally full of errors too but the worst part is that it repeatedly insists on the wrong answer instead of sensing something is wrong when students are getting it wrong (actually right) every time and send the question for some intelligent human review. prism calculation about formulas, the student cycled through all 3 of their answers and all three were wrong! They kept changing the "correct" answer to something else. I math it is a little better, but -x^2-11x was marked wrong, saying the correct answer was -11x-x^2, although the math standard for polynomials is from the higher-order term to lower. They wrote something worse than Spanglish: "I comparo" -> which is total nonsense. I had a student who tried a Spanish test full of errors, so bad that almost every question is an error. It is OK to have 1 or 2 errors in a test that you can get around, but sometimes you just cannon get over them. Please recognize and act on this call to action to remove IXL I hope several people see this and find this helpful. And IXL decreases school morale, so imagine if schools used their budgets on things that nourished, encouraged, or improved students' surroundings and the ways students felt about themselves, as that has been severely decreased by the massive and sickening garbage heap that is IXL. IXL has caused disruption in sleep schedules and the ridiculous and sometimes multi-stage workloads seem torturous to overcome for any and all that are required to complete them. A seemingly simple 30 minutes of IXL has become torture for children everywhere where IXL can be accessed (see kids reviews). The system of getting a question right bringing your "Smart Score" up by minuscule amounts and getting a question wrong decreasing your "Smart Score" by drastic amounts does nothing but harm one's feelings of self-confidence ad self-appreciation. On several occasions, it has occurred to me how horrendous the IXL program is for kids hoping to learn.
