Drop down choices on test

Instead of having students type words such as "correct" or "is not correct" a drop down option for those would be wonderful. Students make typing mistakes or grammar mistakes and it counts the question wrong. As a teacher with 27 students, it make...

Allow calculators to be turned on or off for different students.

If calculators are available all the time, some students will just use the calculator and not want to work out their problems. Students with IEP's may need a calculator at all times, but others will not need them all the time.

Give teachers the ability to close assignments at different times for different students

I would love to be able to close an assignment for some students, but leave it open for others in the same hour. Sometimes I want to leave an assignment open for a student who had been absent, but I want to close it for everyone else who should ha...

Allow teachers to grade assignments even if students haven't turned them in.

Students often do the work but forget to turn it in despite my numerous reminders. The auto score is WRONG, but I can't change their grade. I'd love to be able to grade that work and give students credit (assign a grade that also goes through to G...

Add Dyslexic Font

Have students be able to switch the font to Dyslexic on the text and workbook pages (digital). This is really powerful and helpful for dyslexic students and most digital reading apps allow it already (Sora, Actively Learn).

organization of "My Library"

I would find it to be helpful if when I go to My Library that all of the resources were in order by my choice of organization. Also, Science and SS should be separated some how. I shouldn't have to sift through pages to find my playlist. Thank you!

Make guided notes (fill in the blank) available to assign to students to be used with the slideshows and/or etext

It would be very helpful to have guided notes available that were fill in the blank and modifiable by the teacher to go along with the lesson slideshows and etext. These would be assigned to students that need modifications.

Global Playlist

Make a playlist sharable at the district level (admin accounts) so each individual teacher would not need to be added. Example: Science Coordinator wanting to share playlist for entire district.

PDF: Give Teachers the same PDF annotation tools that Students see

When students are assigned a PDF in Realize, they have tools to highlight, draw on, and create text boxes on that PDF. However, the teacher view of a PDF does not show these tools, and therefore teachers cannot model how to use them for students. ...
