Keep Trying Message
Change the message "Try Harder!" on the student feedback screen - kids getting 90% are seeing this and feeling discouraged, when they shouldn't! How about "Keep Up the Good Work" or "Keep Trying". Try Harder has this conotation of "you didn't do well"...
3 votesHello everyone!
Thank you so much for the insightful feedback. We agree – statements like “Try Harder” has a negative connotation and can be quite discouraging to students. Thus, we have eliminated it from the bank of immediate feedback within all tasks. :)
Thanks for the support and patience, and ultimately helping to improve ScootPad’s platform. We wouldn’t be able to do so without your feedback. You all rock!

Disappointed
Hello, my students were so disappointed at the changes to your website :( They loved the fireworks and emotion faces that you used to let them choose. They also said it looks so serious and not so much fun anymore. Just thought you'd like the feedback. Any chance we can get those features back?
Thanks!3 votesGood news! This feature has been added! Students can now set the emotion and the fireworks should also show at the end of practices and assignments.

Checking Student assignments
Please set it up so that we are able to click on a student's name to see whether they have completed all assignments.
Right now, the only way I can do this is to click on the assignment. It would be so much easier to click on a student's name to see what assignments they still owe.3 votesHello,
This feature is currently in the system. In assignment view, you can view by student and see all assignments for the student as well as their status.
Thanks!

Real-Time Report for Teachers
There needs to be a real-time report that shows how long students have been on a subject, what screen they're on, what subject they're on (or what ScootPad screen) and time duration. Our teachers need this to monitor their work habits during intervention. There's an activity report currently, but that's not real-time.
3 votesHi there! Check out the new “in progress” real time activity displayed in the activity report for 2.0! This is super exciting because you can see details in order to intervene! Thanks for your support!

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!
