Review of MathsWatch
Nov 2023
the questions are not varied enough and they are the same, which means students can copy answers from their friends hence not showing the true reflection of students understanding.
Reply from MathsWatch:Dear Eric, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. We believe our GCSE questions database contains enough questions to allow you to create the variation needed for your students when you create their assignments. Also note that students have their own questions database with different setup than yours. Regarding students seeing the same questions, as you can appreciate, teachers will have different approaches when it comes to homework. Some will prefer to have an assignment with set questions in order to be able to go through it with their classes. Others would indeed rather have an assignment with 'individual' questions. So far we have only offered the former type of assignments but we are currently working on the second format and that should soon become available. Once again, thanks for taking the time to leave a review.
Eric Mensah found MathsWatch:
- Significantly reduces teacher workload“questions are already prepopulated”
- Does not significantly reduce attainment gap“the questions are accessible to students and similar to GCSE questions”
- Significantly provides school data“analysis of students performance and areas of improvement”
- Does not significantly improve attainment“the lower attainers only”
