Why does it work?
Web-based - Because Study Island is completely Web based, students can use it
at school or home and can study and learn at their own pace. There is no software to download or install;
all you need is an Internet connection.
Dynamic Content - Not only are there several thousand questions in the Study Island program,
but each question is also constantly changing. The answers to the multiple choice questions are continuously
changing position, and the numbers in the math questions are randomly chosen. This causes the students to learn
the concepts, not just memorize the answers.
Skills-Specific - Study Island's lessons and practice tests are based solely on the
Curriculum Frameworks and Common Core Standards
and are specifically designed to prepare students for the
MCT2 and SATP.
Study Island covers each and every
Objective
that will be tested on the
MCT2 and SATP.
Better Than Workbooks - Study Island offers all the benefits of workbook based programs
in addition to the tremendous benefits that can only be provided by a Web based program. Unlike workbooks,
Study Island enables students to interact with thousands of questions, then automatically and instantly grades
and records all student work. In addition, users are able to print custom workbooks.
Question Style Similar to the
MCT2 and SATP - The question style on Study Island is similar to the style on the actual
MCT2 and SATP.
This allows students to get comfortable with the testing style; therefore, test-taking mistakes will be
reduced and scores will improve.
Self-paced - Every student learns at a different pace. Study Island allows the
student to learn at their own pace.
Multiple Study Modes - In addition to allowing students to learn at their own pace,
Study Island lets students choose their style of learning. Students can choose between a standard test format
and several interactive games for their study sessions.
Real-time Reporting - Study Island records statistics for each user session in a real time report card.
Teachers have access to a private page where they can view usage statistics and results for each student and
the school as a whole. Real-time reports (including graphs) help teachers measure progress and identify deficiencies
as they relate to the specific
Objective.
Teachers and administrators can use these statistics to see how their students compare to other students in
Mississippi.
