Overall Satisfaction with Renaissance Accelerated Reader
Renaissance Accelerated Reader is used in our district to help ensure that readers are not only reading materials that are appropriate and somewhat challenging for them, but it is also used to check comprehension skills. Accelerated Reader is used in our school as a tool to encourage students to read and meet goals set by the teacher and/or the Accelerated Reader diagnosis. I personally like to have a conference with each student and have each set his/her goal at either what the program suggests or higher if I've seen that he/she is capable of a higher point goal. I have found the tool to be very useful in assigning grade-level appropriate reading materials for my students and for holding students accountable for comprehending what they are reading. My data shows that my students are making between one and two full years' growth in reading already this year. That is due in part to students having books in their hands and Accelerated Reader!

Evaluating Renaissance Accelerated Reader and Competitors

We wanted to make sure that tests would be available for a wide variety of books. Students are able to take tests over books they have in their homes, books in the school library, and books from their classroom library!
We wouldn't change a thing! We are very happy with the selection of books covered. The company is also very receptive to adding tests over books not already in the system!
