What is MobyMax?
MobyMax is a standards-aligned K–8 learning platform for math, literacy, science, and social studies equipped with adaptive tests, test-prep lessons, interactive whiteboard activities, and motivational tools. MobyMax also features specific state test-prep activities. Unique features include multiple single sign-on (SSO) login options, teachers' ability to assign badges for performance, student goal-setting, student-teacher messaging, and teacher-initiated class contests. The site also has a Wall feature where teachers can post class messages, assignments, events, and polls.
Is it good for learning?
The ability for teachers to customize content for each student makes MobyMax a good fit for individualized instruction -- in limited amounts. Lessons mostly entail multiple-choice or constructed-response prompts, but there are also opportunities for written responses -- they're just not automatically graded or included in the progress monitoring data. These features make MobyMax a solid tool for guided practice and progress monitoring. The lessons are, for the most part, designed to promote meaningful learning and conceptual understanding. In addition, teachers, parents, and students all have access to tracking a student's progress, which can empower students to become more accountable for their own learning.
