IXL

CATEGORY: Assessment & Feedback 

DESCRIPTION: immersive, adaptive math/ELA content practice (PK-12th grade); students take diagnostic tests to align with current abilities, teachers assign topics (standards) or skills for students to practice

COMMON USES: schools leverage regular practice in the adaptive platform to reinforce weakness areas or provide extension opportunities; often associated with intervention/extension time

PLATFORM: web-based, app

ACCESS: RESTRICTED (must pay for access, free trials available upon request)

*Why did we include this premium tool when it requires payment? Because IXL appears to be one of the most commonly-used intervention resources for math and ELA. Many schools have demonstrated significant growth in math/ELA after implementing regular IXL use.
