    My son who is in the 7th grade disagrees with the evaluation of Study Island. He finds it to be boring with crude graphics. The one benefit to Study Island however, is a student can practice from home if he or she choses to.

    I have spent many hours with students as they work on Study Island, and I believe that they aren't as enthusiastic about the program as adults are. What I have noticed from the teachers is that Study Island is a good babysitter and a way to kill time. I'm not so sure I would give the program credit for boosting test scores.

    I have had nothing but bad experiences with study island. Much like many things, the idea is better than the reality. Even though the system "times out" when the computer senses the student is guessing, the students just take a ten second break then get right back to guessing.
