IXL is an app in which students can practice different skills and they will receive immediate feedback. There are multiple different subjects such as math, language arts, science, social studies, and Spanish. Within each subject are multiple lessons that practice multiple skills and have interactive learning.

Here is an example from the 2nd grade language arts section 'How many syllables does the word have?'. In this section, students will listen to the word and determine how many syllables the word has. IXL keeps track of the questions answered, the time elapsed, and the SmartScore (out of 100) which determines how well they are doing on a skill. If a student answers a question wrong, their SmartScore will go down. It also gives students a chance to ask for help and receive feedback immediately.

IXL offers specific and content based skills, lessons, and games for students to explore and learn. IXL is organized into grade levels, content, and specific skills and lessons which makes it easy for teachers to find exactly what they are looking for. Some examples of specific skills students can practice in a 2nd grade language arts class is 'How many syllables does the word have?', 'Which word does not rhyme?', and 'Sort short and long vowel words'. With these very specific skills, students are able to understand the content, pace themselves, and have repetition.

I think that IXL is a very productive and resourceful content specific app. IXL offers so many different activities and skills for students to focus on. IXL also allows teachers to see their students progress and therefore can develop a plan to reach out and help kids who need help. I will use IXL in my future classroom for students to practice skills that we have already learned. I think IXL can be used as a resource for students to go back to look at and practice content they already learned.

With IXL, teachers can get immediate feedback of their students progress and can see what students may need some more help with. IXL also creates a personalized plan for each student based on their progress and how they are doing on different skills. IXL encourages students to take initiative in their learning and helps students become motivated, even when it may take multiple tries to understand a skill or lesson.
