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!

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!

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.

Reading Log Page Organization
Reading Log Completion Organization.
It would be nice to be able to sort the reading logs by the amount that students have completed for the week. That way teachers can "inspire" those students who haven't completed any to complete them.
It would also be awesome if there was a way to have a scroll bar by the students' names so you could see whose reading logs you are reviewing. It would make assessing work much faster.
0 votesHello,
The reading log was revamped and includes all of those features! Thanks for your suggestions and support!

Spelling Fix - Backspace EXIT
In the settings for spelling it would be nice if pushing the backspace button didn't make you loose all of your work. This goes for the students taking the practice tests and the teachers creating the list. I have recreated the same list 3 times because of not realizing the curser wasn't in the word box and hitting "backspace" by accident while on the final step and it taking me back to the main assignments page and not saving the list.
0 votesHi everyone,
This was a great suggestion and we have improved the spelling portion since it was first suggested. Thanks for your support!

Assignment questions - Assessment Format
I would love to see the questions types on assignments match the questions types on the assessments. Students practice on assignments, but the assessment question style is different and it can confuse some students. Maybe add some similar 'assessment style' questions to the practice?

ELA practice - Capital Letters
It may be helpful if you could make the ELA practice more friendly for kindergarteners. One problem tells students to type capital letters when they have not been taught how to type yet. Is there a way where you can have capital letters and lower case letters, and ask students to pick which one has capital letters. This would be helpful.
1 voteThanks for the suggestion. We have revamped Practice 2.0 and this was taken into consideration.

Direct link to e_book from within Reading Log Assignment on Dashboard
WHen teachers assign an e-book, students see an "assignment block" on their dashboard with the response prompt from their teacher. The title of the e-book is in the title of the assignment, but kids have to then go to e-books, navigate through all the levels to find the book. We need a DIRECT LINK from the assignment to the e-book - just like you see when you click on the Reading Log choice in the left tool bar.
5 votesWhen eBooks are assigned, it shows as one task on the student’s dashboard. Students can click Read to open the eBook and Submit to write their reading log.

eBoosk Reading assignments
It would be great if the book would show up in the reading assignment instead of the student having to look for the book in the ebook section.
