EdReady is a personalized math and English readiness learning system that evaluates the skills of each student in the context of their goal and then provides a learning pathway to mastery. EdReady supports and accelerates math and English readiness.

 

This activity takes you through the steps to set up your own EdReady account and how you can use it with your students.

 

OTAN supports agencies wanting to try EdReady with their students. They will set up teacher accounts and needed student pathways. Students are assigned a “Goal key” that ensures the student is working in their teacher’s account. Teachers can track student progress and time on task.

 

For more information about EdReady, please see the Web-based article titled, “Accelerate Learning with EdReady”.

 

 

Preparation

1.    Decide on the learning goals needed and contact OTAN for help in setting up those goals.

2.    Decide how you will use EdReady, as part of a blended classroom or as a distance learning course with an initial orientation.

3.    Preview the site both as a teacher and as a student. You will need two different email addresses in order to do this.

4.    Schedule time in the computer lab or with a computer cart so that each student will have their own computer.

5.    Make sure you will have Internet access and can connect to the EdReady site.

Determine each student’s goal and the key to that goal. If necessary, prepare a card with the student’s name, their goal, and the goal key.

How-To

1.    Discuss learning goals and different academic and career paths.

2.    Preview EdReady and show students how to navigate through the application.

3.    Make sure every student has an email address and can access it. This might be a separate lesson on email depending on your students.

4.    Assist your students in logging in to EdReady and entering their goal key.

5.    Give students time to complete the diagnostic test and see their results.

6.    Guide students to their learning pathway and allow them to complete at least one topic.

7.    Once students are comfortable using EdReady, they can work on their own at home or in class.

8.    Students need a lot of encouragement. I like to monitor student progress on a weekly basis and acknowledge the top learners for that week. This does mean that you have to record their score each week.
