Castle Learning allows students to practice and prepare for state exams (i.e. Algebra Regents). It provides instructional support through online review, assessment, and data reporting. Both teachers and students are given a lot of flexibility with assignments. It is critical to know your students, as you can create an assignment from scratch, selecting the questions you think work best with your students. There are a countless number of questions to choose from, which also include state administered regents’ exam questions. Castle Learning supports differentiated instruction. Students who have testing modifications or have specific learning needs can choose an audio option where the questions are read aloud to them. If you have ESL students, the questions can be displayed in different languages. To help with scaffolding, there is an option so that students can be given hints and opportunities to answer questions again if they answered them incorrectly at first. Teachers can track students progress and evaluate each assignment by collecting data that Castle Learning produces. The teacher can also see how long a student spent on the exam, when the students started/ended (or did not end) the exam, how many questions answered correctly, incorrectly, and how many hints a student used.
