Students can't see their score in order to retake low scores
In the old version, students could see their scores on individual assignments and easily click on them to retake in order to get a better score. Is that gone now?
Also, even if they get every question wrong it marks the assignment as completed.
mdownin and anyone else,
If you're a classroom teacher who's been using Khan Academy in your classroom both before and after the change, would you be willing to post your feedback in the post I made to accumulate teacher feedback on Khan Academy Reimagined?
(I'm just another user, and I don't know if KA will use the feedback, but I think it's worth trying.)
THIS!!! Students need to be able to progress monitor themselves. I make them retake low scores, but now they can't even see the scores they got.
Same! I have my students retake low scores, however, they cannot see their scores.
I do not like the new format at all. I have been telling students "keep trying until you get a score you like", but they just see a green check saying "completed" and think they are done. I left feedback on Khan, but I'm wondering how likely it will be that anything changes. If it doesn't change, I will seriously have to rethink my Khan usage in my classroom.
Has anyone seen any evidence or claims that Khan Academy tested these changes with a single classroom teacher?
Is there any reason to think that Khan Academy cares about the learners anymore?
I have had the same problems. One of my students did find the objectives that were assigned to him (but he doesn't remember how he got there now), and then it was green if he passed it and yellow if it was below 75% so he could redo the assignment if necessary.
YES!! I require my students to earn a 70% or better to earn full credit on each exercise, but allow them to retake the exercise as many times as possible in order to do so. PLEASE bring back the score so students are aware of which assignments they need to work on (the raw score is an important factor in learning). They see the checkmark and move on, thinking they have done what is required. Having a checkmark on their list of completed assignments means NOTHING to them. They can receive a checkmark EVEN IF THEY GET NOTHING CORRECT. Please allow students to see their percentage for all completed assignments. Why would this be removed?
