Make Time Spent Data Available to Student
You need to enable students to see how long they have been working on a daily basis, not just time spent on a completed assignment. Data is only available on the parent and the teacher dashboards, but often teachers assign a required minimum amount of time of work on ScootPad. Students should be able to see exactly how much time, how many problems attempted and how many skills practiced on a daily basis for user determined date ranges so they do not need to ask the teachers or parents how long they have been working on ScootPad.

Add a feature to search for specific math concepts regardless of grade.
Currently, when I search for a concept, it only searches within my grade. I have students with varied abilities, and gaps that are outside their current grade. I'd love to be able to search for a concept, and see all the related activities, regardless of grade.

Allow teacher awarding of coins for any/all assignments.
Teachers should be able to award coins for whichever student activities they wish. For example, I would like to award a small amount of coins for simply completing a pre- or post-assessment. I'd like to be able to raise or lower the coin level of assignments based on how long/ difficult they are for my kids. It seems this could be a teacher option throughout the app.
31 votesTeachers can now award bonus coins on assignments. This gives teacher the opportunity to add additional coins to the amount they automatically receive for completing an assignment.

grid
My 2nd grade students have a difficult time drawing the grid to count the squares. The question ask them to draw so many columns and rows and count the squares in it. If it only asked for a few columns or rows it wouldn't be so bad but when it asks for 9 rows and 4 columns, it takes them forever and they get lost. Maybe there could be a grid already on the question they could use to count instead of drawing it themselves.
2 votesHello,
in 2.0, the grid is already available for the students. Thanks for the suggestion!

Customize number of questions per practice.
I have children with attention difficulties and while they enjoy scootpad it is difficult for them to remain focussed at times. It would be great to be able to customise the number of questions in practices and assignments and the number of coins that each practice is then worth.
174 votesHi Everyone,
Thank you for your very insightful feedback – we greatly appreciate it. With the new release of Practice 2.0, you can customize the number of questions per practice session. Check it out in your accounts!

All reports printable
All reports should be printable and/or able to be downloaded in a PDF format. I signed up for the premium account under the impression from your site, etc. that access to reports would include the ability to print all reports. The ability to do this will determine if I use and purchase Scootpad next year. The reports are vital and the need to be printable.

Admin Account- Student User Information
I'm a school-level admin in a school with 750+ students. I need a place to print out a spreadsheet-style page with all of my student usernames and passwords to give to my teachers. I would like to be able to see/print a list with all student info on one page.
3 votesHi All,
You can print out a list of students for each classroom that includes the SUN, userID, and password from the Enrollment page within your admit account. Use the dropdown menu at the top to select a classroom then click the print icon on the top right.
If you want to print out ALL student info regardless of which classrooms they are in, you can do so on the Students page under Users located in the main left navigation.
Thanks so much for your feedback, support, and patience. We really appreciate it. :)

Vocabulary
Add more options for vocabulary learning and review. My 5th graders do not study spelling and the options under spelling are limited as far as using it for vocabulary. I am stuck with using quizlet for vocabulary and I would love to use scootpad for vocabulary.
5 votesScootPad currently has 1,700+ Word Lists in it’s Public Lists section. These lists are created by ScootPad and other teachers and categorized by grade level. You can access these lists when adding a spelling assignment and clicking on the Public Word Lists tab.

Math (Assignment Reveiw) EDIT OPTIONS
While in the Math (Assignment Review) window it would be nice to have the option to edit the assignment directly from this window, particularly the end date, rather than going back to the assignment grid and finding the edit pencil. It all is a bit clunky when operating within the same assignment. It would be nice to have editing options or editing link within the review window.
6 votesHello!
We are excited to announce that you can now edit the assignment within the review window. This exciting enhancement will make updating the assignment super easy.
Thanks for the suggestion! -
