Used Renaissance Accelerated Reader™️ occasionally for 7–12 months

Nov 2021

AR is a fantastic program but it is SOOO difficult to set up and therefore we have been unable to implement it during the pandemic (other than STAR testing last school year) but we are very hopeful to make lots of use of it this year.

Emily Kelly found Renaissance Accelerated Reader™️:
  • Does not significantly reduce teacher workload
    It has initially increased teacher workload due to the complex nature of setting up Accelerated reader for our students but we anticipate that this will decrease once we get used to the annual updates and student imports.
  • Slightly improves teaching efficiency
    Due to COVID and unforeseen circumstances, we haven't gotten much further than STAR testing our students so there hasn't been any impact on teaching efficiency yet.
  • Moderately builds student knowledge
    MyOn has helped give students access to articles and books that they wouldn't normally read and gives them the platform to do so privately which means they are more likely to try something new.
