Gathering Data More Easily
This concerns gathering data from students completed assignments. When searching under Mastery Reports and then Activity there is no way to tell what assignment the students are proficient in unless you open every assignment. Instead of saying Math Assignment #2 please change to the topic like Rounding, In/Out Boxes, etc...
Thanks!1 voteHello,
In Practice 2.0 you can view each assignment (with the name you gave it) and the students’ proficiency!Thanks for the suggestion!

Customizable leaderboard
I would like to have my students see only the top 10 (or some other customizable number) students on the leaderboard, along with their own ranking. I want them to be motivated to reach the top, but not humiliated that everyone will see their name at the bottom.
11 votesHi all,
The leader board is now super customizable! You can choose to show a specific number or none at all. Thanks for your patience!

Hyperlinks in ClassWall
I like the kidblog.com website because I can post videos and links for my students to click on, watch, then post a response to. I can use Scootpad's class wall for this but I need to have the links be a hyperlink, instead of the student's having to highlight, copy and paste into another browser tab to watch. Please all a link to be posted and clicked on. Also, maybe a blog feature in Scootpad.
1 voteHi Everyone,
This suggestion was fun to implement! Feel free to post hyperlinks and videos on the classwall. Change the target to have this link open in another window!
Thanks for your support!

Report print functions
I would like to be able to print the dashboard report information with one teacher to a page.
It would also be nice if the Summary by Teacher dashboard report accessed all teachers in ABC order instead of having to click on the letter tab at the top to bring up a summary of teachers whose name begin with that letter.
1 voteHi there – Thanks for the feedback/question. This has been implemented and you can now print the pages in a printer friendly format.

Provide a Usage Report that documents time spent over a given time period regardless of whether assignment or practice set was completed.
Currently, teachers only see minutes spent/problems completed when the assignment/practice set has been completed. If a student works slowly, their usage may not always show up. For example, if a teacher assigns 15 mins/week for homework - and the student does not complete all 20 questions in that time but did work for the 15 minutes and got 14 questions finished, there is no record of that to the teacher. It makes it hard for teachers to hold students accountable for that 15 minutes/week.
5 votesThanks for your patience! In the student activity report, you can now see tasks in progress even if it is beyond the due date. This will allow you to see items the student already answered and how much time has been spent ! Thanks for being rockstars and using ScootPad!

No Question Retry on Assessments
Is there a way to change the settings so that during practice students are allowed on retry but during assessments there is not a retry option?
1 voteHi there – Thanks for the feedback/question. This has been fixed in Assessments – No retry is allowed in assessments now.
Thanks so much for your feedback, support, and patience.

Assignment due warning
Have a way for the assignments to display different warnings. Example- one day before due date the assignment highlights in orange so student knows its priority. It changes to red on date due. Or have a way for teachers to send individual memo to student privately that they read when opening Scootpad.
5 votesHello,
Thanks for the suggestion! We have updated the program with the ability for teachers to get alerts about which students have not submitted their work by the designated due date. Only students who have yet to complete their work will get a 24-hour reminder alert. Parents are also kept in the loop when an assignment is approaching the due date. Visit our homepage to find out more!

Scoring Reading Logs
Put the review feature for the reading logs on the same page as the submission feature. Then teachers don't have to scroll constantly/flip between the two to be able to score the reading logs.
6 votesHi Everyone!
Thanks so much for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. Now, you can view and edit a student’s submission on one page in the Reading Log. Just select a student within the Review page and you can open up the Review & Feedback drawer and the submissions drawer.
Again, thanks for your feedback, support, and patience. We appreciate you all for helping us improve the platform. :)

Snapshot dashboard for parents with mutiple children
I have the parent subscription and my three kids use Scootpad. It would be nice to view everyone's progress in one place without having to go into each individual account. A snapshot dashboard would be great.

Disable Immediate Feedback on Assessments
Please take immediate feedback off during the assessments. Or make it an option. I have a student that gets very frustrated when he misses ONE item. I really wish all of my students did not see their progress during assessments.

Total Assignment Average Score
I would like an average of my assignments that I assign. For example, I assign a months worth of assignments, say 10 math for one month long. Before, it would give me scores of each assignment but then average the 10 together for a final score.

ELA - Written Responses
Many of my students are getting the written response questions wrong because they're not typing the answer absolutely perfect. This is a point of frustration for many of the students. If this could be adjusted then it would be appreciated.
6 votesHi all,
In Practice 2.0, the questions are super dynamic with more input from the students. You will see a huge difference in how the students have to respond!
