I hate IxL because I know the subject, but the teacher doesn't think so because I make a minor mistake, and its sets me so far back, and it causes me to mess up more. It is rigged and causes more harm than it helps, there are many study on this If you want to look it up. Thanks
IXL causes my child to be stressed about his school and home life he doesnt struggle in class at all but ixl adds extra stress when he could have free time after school since he is caught up with all his work
Just don't even waste your time on IXL. You learn nothing and I have wasted 81 hours of my life because of it. It is 75$ per student( and that is to be payed yearly) So in a school with 350 kids, that is 26,250 dollars per year. That money could go into things that could actually HELP kids, not make them feel stupid and angers because of the unfair IXL grading system.
This site is horrible. The point system is horrible in the way how you have to get so many problems right in a row. Another horrible point system is the smart score counter in the math assignments. You can get ten problems right but one wrong one will set you all of the way back. Personally I believe that teachers use this sight so they don't have to do the grading or do work.
The problem about IXL is it's rigged. The point system is glitched and it doesn't help kids. I looked at recent reviews and it actually makes students less engaged in the lesson IXL has to offer. Also, I found that some of the lessons make you assume genders.
It's bad. You'll regret doing this and I wonder why they didn't make this as a tool for extreme punishment. If there's one thing you should learn in life, its that IXL is horrible. I bet Khan Academy is better, wait never mind. Khan Academy IS better, so I don't have to bet actually.
Now I use IXL on a everyday basis because I have to for school. But why does IXL work like this. For those who don't know what IXL is like well you are required to answer the question given to you and if you get it right then you go up by so and so points. But if you go down on the other hand, you will go down by so many points. Why can't we skip a question we don't like or why when we get it wrong why can't it just explain what we did wrong. The only good thing about IXL is finishing the topic. Just saying if you genuinely like this website kudos to you because its stressful. Also, the explanation page is so dumb. It shows the way they want you to solve the problem not the way you are taught. Just goodluck if you do this and God bless.
Dude, IXL sucks. Honestly it's about to make me kill myself. Any cuss word you can think of describes IXL. Not even gona cap this is a crap program. My math teacher makes us do this ALLLLLL the time > :/
This is a great method of torture. If you child is acting up, take away their things and tell them to get 100 on any math IXL. They will experience a lot more pain, suffering, and anguish if you just take away their things for a day.
This is a horrible website I dont know why schools still use it. They just wants stress on their students. This website gives stress because they will remove points when you get something wrong that's pretty stupid. That makes students upset at themselves when they get something wrong. That's wrong you should be upset at yourself if you do something wrong but ixl makes it seem that way. Ixl should be shut down. ASAP.If i could do a 0 star review i would.
IXL is an uncreative and rigged website to learn on it does not have any good explanation. The website make me cry because of it's rigged questions and my dad forces me to do this painful website made by paul mishf**ks
Ixl can go drop. Itself into the bottomless pit its so awful that 90% Of my family's mouses are in the garbage it literally cargo di its so bad I would rather light my eye on fire the do the demon that is ixl hate its guts it can drop dead
Whenever you get like a number wrong instead of saying like "try again" or something it makes you go back. Another reason that I suddenly realized that when you first get a right answer you get like 10 "points" so like 10% out of 100% in like the end instead of getting 10 points you start getting only 1 point per correct answer. Also, it doesn't matter how many minutes or hours and how much you struggle it just gives you that much. However if you get one wrong like 10 points of something get cut so it would take you ten questions to recover your place.
I am a 8 year old kiddo. This crazy torturing app (shouldn't even be an app) gives you so little points when you get it right. But uhh... get it wrong end up deducting twice the points when earned from the last dumb question.
It's like the worst thing I ever had for homework. I ain't think it very helpful. Basically we pay our money to IXL for torture. What a waste of money!
This is not a good teaching website whatsoever. IXL is a endless rabbit hole of work. They have this scale that determines if you are smart are not luckily mostly everyone is dumb on this scale which they call a smart score. This is how it works basically if you have a score of 70 or abov you get a question right score goes up two points, but if you get one wrong score goes down 10 - 16 points. Now tell me does that seem fair to you. My fellow students agree with me.
Hi i am a student from 8 grade i am having a lot of problems with the 8 grade continents/ocean they want you to write is like The Artic ocean
And if u don't add the (the) so u will get it wrong this app is not user-friendly see the attached pics below
Ixl has given stress. Its also unfair how we get not that many points on one question but we lose more than we earn when we get one wrong. Ixl is a lot of work too. Schools use it, and that's all the proof I need to dislike it, but to my surprise its worse than that. You should not make your kids do this app! It cause stress! Children get over whelmed! Some people enjoy, and the app is getting good rating from strict/not strict teachers and touters!
This site will drive your kids crazy. This website will make your child gain points rapidly for question after question, but after it reaches a certain limit, it will give you 1-2 points for getting the right answer, but subtract 10-20 points for a wrong answer. This stresses kids out immensely and should never be used by educators.
This is the worst $#*!ing app ever you could be at 99 percent and get 1 question wrong and go back 20 percent also it makes me want to literally bash my head into a window I almost broke my iPad because of it also have the time it doesn't even load if your giong to a school and they make you do ixl get ready for a hellhole
Let's just say, I could either do IXL or Study Island. I choose IXL. This website does get annoying, but it's better than most other places. So, just try it out and if you don't like it, too bad. But yes it is unfair bc if I'm at 79 and I get 1 wrong, it takes me back to 60, then I get a question right, and it brings me up to 63. It's unfair but better than Study Island.
Answer: SCAM! IXL is the worst learning site I have ever seen!
Answer: Dunno. Just please, dont use it and if your forced to do it as an assinment beg your teacher to quit cause IXL is annoying s he11.
Answer: To be a scam to get 20 dollars a month for every person who falls in. Also to be the worlds best torture device for kids under 18
Answer: Sadly No... Unless you use Inspect element to fake scores everytime you open it.
Answer: Probably nobody. Unless a bigwig government official who REMEMBERS WHAT IT WAS LIKE TO BE A KID actually looks at IXL for a literal freaking nanosecond goes, "This is actually horrible!" Unfortunately, the odds of that happening are so low that it probably won't happen in my lifetime.
Answer: * That's an asterisk. You have probably seen what it does.
Answer: It is really good it gives lessons and videos how to do it and if you buy yearly subscription it is 10% of and it improved my sons grades, but it has some errors.
Answer: Yes, but it would require everyone currently paying for it and funding it to pull out.
