Edgenuity is woefully disappointing. First of all, most of its content is outdated. For example, in my criminology class, they taught me about a 'current' program that was actually discontinued and replaced in 2019. Moreover, the order of the curriculum is absurd. In my algebra 2 class, they had me take an exponential equation quiz in which we had to use logarithms. The thing is, they didn't teach us about logarithms yet--we were actually supposed to learn about them 2 UNITS LATER. So, in the middle of my quiz, I had to study logarithms on Khan Academy (which is much better at teaching math). Why on Earth would you ask students questions about something they haven't learned yet? They often do this in my history class as well!
To add onto that, they give students an unreasonable amount of assignments to complete in merely one day. I don't have many good screenshots, but in the one I attached below they expected me to do a rough draft of an essay and the final draft in the same day. I've never had to do that in actual high school before, even when I was in Honors classes. Moreover, I had multiple unit tests on that same day. It's difficult to make time for my hobbies and commissions when they give me such a ridiculous workload.
Mind you, with the way Edgenuity is set up, you cannot progress until you finish the assignment or lesson you're currently on. So, you cannot see what's ahead of you, and thus can't prepare for it. This makes it very easy to fall behind.
Not only is the curriculum awful, but the grading as well since AI does most of it. I've gotten answers wrong just in a few journal assignments because I was missing ONE key word the AI searches for, even though it was still technically correct. I'd much prefer to have an actual teacher read my answers and grade them.
Also, some of the 'correct' answers provided on quizzes are just plain wrong--primarily the psychology quizzes. Multiple sources on the internet will give you a different answer than the supposedly correct one. It's a little hard to believe that Edgenuity is right when every other source says otherwise.
Lastly, the lessons are unnecessarily time consuming. I usually finish my notes twenty minutes before the lesson ends just by reading the transcript. Some of the teachers talk ridiculously slow and use redundant words. Sometimes it feels like they're being patronizing because they overexplain everything. How many damn times do I have to relearn how to write a summary? We've been learning about this since 3rd grade, I think we get it already!
They read everything out loud for you as if you're an illiterate 1st grader, and even if you get the answer right they still proceed to go on a monologue about how to get the answer. If they'd just shut up, the lesson could go 2x faster.
