I find the i-Ready Assessment easy to administer to students. I like how if a student exits the test or accidentally leaves the page, it keeps place and students can continue where they left off. Students rarely ask questions on how to use the interface. Students do enjoy the brain break. I find the presentation of the data easy to read, understand and explain to a parent. I like all the information and different reports that are created with the test data. I regularly look at the prerequisite report to help me guide my planning and instruction.

I dislike the length of time it takes to complete an assessment. I also do not think the test algorithm is as good as Curriculum Associates claims it to be when providing questions to students during the assessment. Often, second grade students will go into taking the mid-year or end-of-year assessment at a 1st grade level according to their previous assessment and see questions that are clearly not second grade standards such as adding and subtracting fractions or multiplying/dividing large numbers. These students would have never been exposed to these skills because their paths are set on 1st grade standards. This frustrates them because they know they try and this extends the amount of time the test takes and ultimately students are still at the first grade beginning of second grade. I have never had a student make progress that big. I also wish that students could take the test more frequently as a way to readjust their learning paths. I know I can do it manually but would prefer that test to adjust to be more accurate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
