What Users Love About the App
“This was a great experience for my family and I recommended it to a couple neighbors and they signed up their children to use K-12 online as well. It was not difficult to figure out how to post, reply, get into instructors shared files, or submit homework. The video links worked well also. All in all I would recommend this to anyone considering using online school.”
“K-12 online learning is a great and easy was that is different from the tradition educational setting where students can earn their diploma. It is a great different option for kids. They have a lot of good resources for the students. They make it easy for kids that need a different way to learn.”
“I like the simple fact this platform exists. It really solves a problem and removes the middle layer of communication between schools and parents with everything related to school processes (registration/admin).”
“I am a user, as well as I have worked with a company who provided technical support for the product. Its user friendly and it is really just a great product overall.”
“This educational program was very well done. It had speed back assignments that gave immediate reports on the assignments completed. We received all the technology we needed to communicate and perform the necessary work. There were engaging assignments.”
What Users Dislike About the App
“I wish it was incorporated for students who actually attend school, versus just being for homeschooling.”
“This program was extremely rigorous. Missing a day can set you back and it’s very difficult to catch back up. We wanted to try this program so we could do more field trips, but we were unable to fit much of anything in because of the demand to complete the many assignments.”
“I found the sign-up process long and somewhat complicated. I felt like I was asked to do too much compared to similar programs available that offer the same service.”
“For starters setting everything up was difficult I had to contact customer support a couple of times.”
“The only thing that can be improved is the help features for students. My daughter was unable to figure out the information without a adult. It would be nice if it offered a kid troubleshooting option. So she could fix issues on her own.”
