Student Results
The Activity Reports are great in letting us know exactly what students are missing; but they would be much more useful if we were able to print them WITHOUT the correct answers showing. I use them to remediate with my students and have them rework the problems they missed, but I have to whiteout the correct answer in order to use them.

Add a reading fluency feature
Students record themselves reading the available ebooks, assigned passages, or word lists. Student can listen to their own readings, and teachers can listen to recordings to track reading fluency progress. Teachers can score passages, or feature could be created similar to Scholastics System 44, or Read180 feature that scores them automatically, and shows students their errors.

Games on Grade Level
Adjust the games so that the challenge presented is on level with the students. My students were excited to use their tokens that they earned for the games, but the word searches and hangman had vocabulary that was way above their 2nd grade level.

All encompassing placement test
A placement test that would test students through all grade levels so that students could dig into lower grade levels for remediation of skills that have gaps. Or let's them skip up grade levels as an enrichment.

Accelerated Reader Label
Our school uses the Accelerated Reader program, and some of your e-books are also in the AR database. It would be great if the AR books were marked with the AR level so students knew which e-books they could also take an AR quiz on after reading them on Scootpad.

Have students explain in words how they came to the solution in math problems, and why they chose their method to solve over another method.

This is not a current feature on our road map, but feel free to use the writing feature or class wall to have students explain their answers. It’s great for discussion!

Some students are clicking "submit" twice on accident when they are done entering their reading logs, and then they can't enter their last weekly entry.
or...
allow them to complete more than the requirement.12 votesWe have acknowledged this feedback.

Class wall posts
Allow students to respond to one another's posts within the class wall to encourage discussions... a layered response approach. Sometimes it is difficult to see who is responding to whom unless they say the student's name. This would allow more interaction within the students.

Performance Tasks
I would like to see some performance assessment style assignments that require the use of multiple standards and steps. The assignment might require multiple steps, but it would be just one assignment.
