Renaissance Accelerated Reader Review
Overall Satisfaction with Renaissance Accelerated Reader
Renaissance Accelerated Reader (AR) is being used school-wide, however, multiple teachers do not use it. This is because there was no training on it, therefore teachers are a little cloudy on how to set it up along with how to set goals for their students. The problems AR addresses is the lack of reading on our campus.
Pros
- It gives different level DOK questions to the students
- AR allows students to track their points to their goal and students can see a percentage of what they have not completed.
- There is a wide range of books on AR.
Cons
- Makes it easier for teachers to reset the quizzes. It was a mission to find it, and then I had to email the help desk. Our wifi is not very strong so it will freeze the computers sometimes, and that ends the quiz.
- It should be easier to set goals for the students all at once.
- Positive overall.
We have only used AR as an online test for reading. This was recommended to us from another middle school site.
