Great Teaching Tool

Overall I think it’s a great tool and can really enhance teaching!

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

I liked Socrates because it’s easy to use and you can send out a quiz in real time to students. It’s all electronic so no paper waste.

Cons:

One thing is it can give some anxiety as you go through the questions together causing some students to rush.

Kids Love It!

My overall experience has been good. I feel that it has been a good review program in math and language arts for the kids. I love that I can monitor their progress and reassign skills that they need to work on.

Pros:

What I like most about this software is that the kids love going on it. The kids are learning math and language arts but then get rewarded with games, cards, etc. It is a win, win situation.

Cons:

There isn't much that I didn't like about the software. It does seem like they play games a lot, but it can be controlled, so it's not much of a problem.

Pros:

High interest level for my students. They love the games. All students are able to use it independently.

Cons:

The students can earn the rewards too easily and need more of a challenge before being rewarded and being able to play games.

Socrates is Always Growing and Changing

Our experience with Socrates has been great and I love that Socrates is always willing to adapt and change the software to make it fit the needs of elementary students and teachers.

Functionality

Pros:

I love the benchmarking feature! It is really helpful to teachers to be able to benchmark students in an untimed, computer scored manner :)

Cons:

I would like to see the software include a reteaching feature, like when a student answers a question wrong, it will reteach or teach them the skill.

Socrates Ease

The students can access this program at home and they are learning as they turn to this program rather than a video game at home and hopefully this will happen more and more. They love competing with their peers for the most tickets & medals. Each day they want to see who received the most tickets, so it is up on the board every morning and the winner gets to turn their card to purple (which is an "I went above and beyond" token).

Pros:

What I like most about Socrates is that the students love it and it keeps them engaged. They love the challenge of working towards tickets. They use their whiteboards on the math questions and this keeps their minds going.

Cons:

Maybe a little less game time, work more problems before playing. The questions are fun for the students so a lot of game time is not necessary.

Pros:

This program provides individualized support to students, while also encouraging them along the way! This program progressively identifies where a student IS and supports them to reaching where they need to be - while also incorporating their interests!

Cons:

At times, the games on Socrates feel interesting to students, which is GREAT; online teaching, however, is just challenging. Ensuring that the students are accurately progressing and completing units at times can be a challenge!

It would be nice if this was a comprehensive SLM.
