I hate this course so much i would rather be gang stalked by the cia and have a chip put in my brain and the get arrested and deported to a military camp and receive harsh training and go to war where i get captured by the enemy and get my nerve endings are frayed; get thrown into a pit of snakes and be forced to spend the rest of my life as a shut in when i am rescued. This is my actual feelings. Please stop putting 12 video lessons within a lesson. It would be better to just make it one video, and have an option to contact a tutor directly. Separate quizzes for each lesson are personally annoying and unneeded. AND PLEASE MAKE EVERYTHING ONE COURSE I for some reason have to take 2 separate geometries, which makes no sense. It would make my life so much better and others too. Thanks. But i don't think you're gonna listen, so good luck to the others out there who are going through this absolute hellhole. Welcome to your own personal hell.
Me and my friends have to use this everyday and it absolutely sucks. Every day we have to complete 1 and a half hours of work when we only have an hour. Maybe if it wasn't so focused on making a quick buck it would be better. Worst learning platform I've encountered on my thirteen years of living on this planet. The typos and incorrect subject matter is ridiculous. We have to use this for our accelerated math program and I am genuinely considering dropping out even though I'd likely just be bored to death in seventh-grade math. But at this point, it feels like I have no choice because of the ridiculous workload, horrible instruction content, and incompetent teachers.
Truly horrific platform, the instructors monotone, the lessons confusing and unhelpful, no one I know likes using it, the only way you'll learn anything is from googling answers or from the tutors. My review does not do my hatred for it justice, I am unable to write a review scathing enough to convey my dissatisfaction.
It teaches in the absolute most boring way. I'm medicated for ADD and it is so uninteresting and poorly done that I can't even focus on it. The mics they use are so cheap they randomly decide to go from screaming at you to barely being able to hear them. I cannot explain how angry this program makes me.
The lessons are terrible. Vague, repetitive, and drawn out. They refuse to provide necessary information or material until you do a quiz. The most annoying thing is how it forces you to stay on a lesson page until a video or audio clip has completed. Sometimes it's just a short bit of text to read that you have to sit on for minutes until you can continue. Whoever's job it is to format this site has little to no care for those who actually use it.
I have used Edgenuity for school very often and this happens every time. I can multitask see. So when I make the tab smaller ( not close it or hide it) just having it smaller than full screen glitches it out. The glitches include, but are not limited to, the videos repeatedly scrolling themselves out of the boundaries, pixelization of the screen, tab/tabs repeating horizontally making it seem like i have hundreds of the same tabs stacked on top of eachother, screen flickering, and much more. There have also been a glitch that has effected both my friends and I: Flickering. This glitch happens after you use the program and may last weeks. It hasn't happened before to any one of my friends. It has happened directly after using the program. If that could get fixed I would be very grateful.
The Edgenuity promotional video claims that this curriculum adapts to student needs. I haven't experienced this at all. The basic framework for the courses is linear, so you can't skip around or choose what you're working on at any point. You have to fully complete each assignment regardless of whether it's doable or even beneficial to you. I don't see how that can be marketed as adaptive. Additionally, the course has every single assignment planned out from the moment you start it, so it really doesn't change based on the student. Actually, it doesn't seem like it's been updated in at least 10 years. I am enrolled in both Algebra 2B and Spanish 1B and I've basically given up on the Algebra course at this point, because trying to do both of them is just too tiring. In in-person learning I used to be a top student in both of these classes. It's really disappointing for me because I have no way of making up the credit.
I can only really speak for the Spanish 1B course, but my general experience has been going something like this:
-Extremely outdated coursework
-Lack of subtitles in audio-based assignments, just generally not accommodating
-Crashing
The most boring website i've ever used. It's boring and long. Videos are unskippable, super boring i almost fall asleep while doing it. The quality is also horrendous to the point that it makes me laugh. If you wanna make a learning platform, DO BETTER. 0/10 Do NOT recommend.
Where do I even begin? The whole outline of the platform is terrible and is leaving me and my peers frustrated. I am currently behind, and it's because the platform is glitching. Not to even mention the videos are bland and don't even fully explain anything. Also, someone PLEASE tell me why the grades go into decimals? I got an 89.8 on my report card when it would've just rounded up to a 90.
Two words to describe this: Long and Complicating. About 15 lessons every day worth of like 10 minutes of complicated explanation each lesson. Our district assigned a diagnostic test and this platform gave us 132 questions. I heard if you're on your computer and you log out of your computer while one the test, your test gets locked. I don't know if that's true or not. Stick to Freckle, I Ready, Prodigy, or what I do: Search the answers. Any other website than this. Goodbye.
Super boring and no one likes it, at least make your lessons entertaining enough for me to pay attention.
You see, I have a REALLY low attention span which means if I don't something then I can't pay attention to it. When I was in actual school, I could somewhat pay attention sometimes but now I can't even. Also, website is an eye soar, use cooler colors and don't make everything white or at least have a dark mode.
I miss 1 question of the 5 question reveiw and they make me watch 16 parts of video based on something I'm not learning. And the stupid app doesn't even let you know or reveiw what you got wrong! I would never reccomend this to a growing child let alone another adult.
It is very dull and confusing it expects us to teach ourselves by reading translations and taking notes the tests are more complex than the stuff they teach you and it is very easy to get distracted you can also skip submitting something accidentally and not get to redo it or look back at it. I don't think anyone I know likes it, it also puts a lot of pressure on students to get 5 hours done a week.
DO NOT RECOMMEND this was written by a student
As a student that regularly has to use Edge, I have to say that it is one of the worst education sites that I've ever used. The lessons are painfully mundane and boring, the information confusing, and website itself insanely glitchy. Overall, Edgenuity has been a bad experience for me.
This review is going to be simple and short.
This website is $#*!ing hilarious. The poorly sized stock photos of random children and random objects that have nothing to do with the subject, the mundane teachers reading a script, the 240p resolution, the unexpected mic booms, I could go on.
This website is hilarious and I would not recommend lmao.
One reason on a no school day we still have work to do, which means every day of the school year we have work to do if we dont want to get behind.that is the reason why i am over 40 hours behind.Over all edgenuity learning is not fun.Getting a answer correct along with hearing the ring sound is the only satisfying thing along with passing the unit test and assignments.It would be nice if somebody got a answer wrong the sound could be nicer.One last thing when i fail a unit test twice i get discouraged
This is the worst online learning platform used today. We student's are not learning anything from it so much as just waisting our class time staring at a screen. This site should honestly be taken down and teachers put back in our classrooms.
It's terrible. I'm doing FLVS school online. I have 4 classes on that program and then for some odd reason they gave me 2 more classes on edgenuity. This is new because we've never used edgenuity the first 3 years of my online high school classes. I didn't even know I had classes on edgenuity until 2 months into the school year, so I have over 84 overdue assignments. They're assigning 8 assignments a day and expect you to complete all of those 3 hour lessons that are unskippable as well as assignments, projects, quizzes, and unit test all in ONE day. I am flooded with all of this work as well as my other high school classes on flvs that I need to do as well. I'm very behind in my flvs classes because I am trying to complete and catch up on my edgenuity work! This is extremely frustrating and unnecessary. I don't understand how they expect me or any other student to learn or get anything done, they have no consideration and it is extremely hard to stay on pace. I started working on those assignments trying to catch up from 11 in the morning until 9 at night! Just for me to behind again the next day. It's completely draining! I Do Not Recommend This Program At All.
This school not only overloads my child's mind with excess work and information but also has a heavy political undertone in each subject (particularly English). The English course is only focused on race, particularly the achievements of minorities which is not bad on its own but ruins the study of English by only focusing on one select group. There is nothing in the course about Hemmingway, Austin, or any other great English writers. Woke and would not recommend it.
I'm a student who uses edge and I absolutely hate it, I got a 0 on an essay because Edgenuity said it was word-for-word plagiarized but I wrote it entirely by myself, I've had so many glitches, it is just so hard to listen to it because I just can not keep in the info in my head. I just did a healthy living thing and all I had to do was take the article it gave me and copy it into the box and I got a 100. I am getting slammed with labs and essays and like 10 other things almost every day and I'm tired normally I work from 7-5 every day and I either get a little ahead or like a week behind, if I take a day off I'm just somehow behind again and it takes me so long to get back ahead, and I feel like I'm not learning anything.
