Teachlr Organizations vs USATestprep: Which is a better fit?

Jessica: I'm Jessica and I am a Director of Curriculum. My rating for USATestprep is a four out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. USATestprep helped my school a lot because we were trying to get people ready for the MAP test. And so, we were able to assign lessons or have review games based on specific Missouri state standards. So, it met the need of being able to look at the standards where we were weak and create or use pre-made quizzes or lessons to help fill that need with our students. And also help with our students who did after-school tutoring because we really needed, especially for those kids, something that was going to target the gaps of what they specifically needed to know and maybe what they had missed in years past. Probably my favorite thing as an educator about USATestprep is the review games, especially the white board or smart board games like Battle Royale. My kids really liked Battle Royale. Being able to split into boys versus girls or just different groups within the room. And you could do that whole group or in small group. And also being able to play that game, having it be fun, having the rewards built into the game, not have to be something you have to pay or have candy for or anything like that. Something is as simple as hearing a specific noise because they did well or having to have the other team lose points or versus you getting bonus points. So, it really helped. It also helped with competition because a lot of kids kind of thrive on that. And kids that maybe under normal circumstances wouldn't have been excited about a review of lesson material would be more excited because we were getting to play Battle Royale and they were getting to pick their own team name and team character and try to beat the other teams. So, Battle Royale and in general the review games on USATestprep are my favorite part of USATestprep. One thing that I struggled with USATestprep was creating my own benchmark test. I don't feel like USATestprep is quite as intuitive as other test making programs that are educational. For instance, sites like Kahoot! or Quizizz, where you're able to very quickly choose from a pool of questions. I know that USATestprep it's similar, but I had a little bit more of an issue creating, especially if I wanted to create my own questions. Normally for things like that, instead of USATestprep, I would go to using Google Forms, Quizizz, or Kahoot!, just because to me, they were more user-friendly. And I stuck to using USATestprep for individual assigned lessons and also for the review games.
