Top Rated Edmentum Courseware Alternatives
The lessons in Edmentum were planned ahead of time, aligned with state standards, and set up with a pacing guide to help teachers and students cover all content within a school year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Depending on the course, some lessons require flash. Our students' chromebooks are no longer compatible with flash, and so teachers had to create their own assessments in place of those. The student's work was not easy as the work opened in a Microsoft Word file or PDF. Students had to input answers, save a new copy, and then upload the new copy. Many students were confused and uploaded the initial assignment. Many students are so used to Drive that they did not save assuming it would do it for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a tested curriculum for a whole school and it readily accepts requests for new features. The Partnership Managers are truely amazing and are willing to help you in any way even beyond the initial setup and trainings which have good documentation. The curriculum is usable by all of our students from test prep or military placement to honor's courses and beyond. We have even been able to offer a virtual academy for those students who learn better at a distance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The call in custoner support is slow and sometimes not very helpful, but reaching out to your Partnership Manager can make huge improvements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that Edmentum allows parents to create a custom learning path for your kid and tailor the content specific to their needs - this was great for us since my child has learning disabilities. I also really like the interactive content - there are a ton of different tools to learn - videos, animations and simulation learning. This was helpful to keep my kids engaged.

This is an online learning tool, so you will need to be a bit technical savvy to troubleshoot things on occasion. There is no social learning or peer learning (that I saw) available in the tool which could be a great way to introduce a social element for kids to interact.

I like the ease of removing and adding assignments. I can edit an assignment to include more content on the level of the student while teaching them the standards they need to know. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike how you need an admin to assess to view the consumer and secret key. It would be beneficial to consider their classes through the school's LMS portal so that teachers can focus more on teaching and less on grading work. I noticed that if you remove a student that is not using the software, it keeps adding them to the class no matter how many times I remove it from the screen.
