Freckle by Renaissance vs. Prodigy Education

Freckle is a fantastic online learning platform. I think it works well in multiple learning environments. Last year I used Freckle in a distance learning model and this year on individual iPads in class. I love that it is a quick platform to assess student achievement. I haven't experienced a scenario where Freckle would fail however, lack of access to the internet is always a factor.

• Freckle does a great job adapting lessons.
• Freckle does a great job motivating students and participation.
• Freckle is very interactive with students and teachers to support continued participation.
• Freckle provides DOK challenge questions that support students' understanding after standards are met.
• Student inquiry and problem-based questions are also new additions to Freckle that help support led activities.

• My students get bored with just answering questions the whole time. They complain about having to get on to Freckle.
• I would like to see open ended or open response questions.
• I would like for Freckle to be able to assess fluency.

Freckle is an excellent educational tool. The platform supports students and provides them with the opportunity to be successful in mathematics.

Such an excellent program that is a hidden gem at no cost for teachers to use with students.

We use Freckle because we are already using Renaissance for accelerated reading. These two programs compliment each other. The students are able to go back and forth between programs very easily. This makes my job as a teacher so much easier. When students are comfortable with a program, they become more independent. This builds much needed confidence.

• I used Freckle in the free version and was very pleased with the opportunities it offered my students and the engagement is achieved.
• I currently use Freckle premium and continue to enjoy the benefits that Freckle provides to my student's growth, more so it now provides weekly reports and other analytical reports to support students.
