Ellevation Education Reviews & Product Details

I like how easy it is to use at work. Everything is spelled out and easy to find information on students Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is one part where you have to evaluate how the student is doing and the wording is slightly confusing and I usually mess it up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ellevation is relatively easy to learn to use. In addition to being a valuable way to track multilingual learners, it has features like Professional Learning Modules for teachers to take PD courses on how to help MLs better. It also has collections of teaching strategies and corresponding lessons to use with MLs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ellevation could do better on certain things, such as allowing two ML teachers to be assigned to a student in their profile. We have also had issues with the meeting center and meetings not populating correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ellevation offers multiple ideas for how to scaffold and support our multilingual learners. There are ready-made lessons and activities that model how to use each scaffold, in practice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The least helpful item is not Ellevation itself, but just the fact that it's a separate platform. I wish the ideas in Ellevation could be embedded into some of the curricular websites and programs that we utilize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of access to relevant data points relating to student language acquisition is extremely helpful. Getting into Ellevation and finding my students is simple and the platform allows for a multitude of data points to be accounted for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The filter options for data can be tricky. Without an easily accessible filtering system it can be challenging to look at the overwhelming information provided at once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What is the most helpful is: it syncs with SIS, it is user-friendly (i.e. you don't have to guess if you are done with completing a form or how to find a student). and has pertinent information about students. It is helpful is understanding the backgrounds of students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike is that it is only as useful as you make it. If other teachers in the past haven't written notes or your district doesn't update plans/information, it is not as helpful. It also depends on if the forms you complete for certain students are filled out and actually looked at. There is no confirmation that they have been received/acted upon.

ELLevation Education has great resources for teachers to use with students. The resources would benefit all students in the classroom as well as EL students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It does require some training to know how to navigate the program and review the data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ellevation is a good resource for keeping track of the tested abilities, levels, and overall progress of ELL students in the classroom. It also keeps all their plans and modifications in one convenient place. It makes it easier to give my ELL students all the support they need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ellevation provides lessons to use for ELL students, but I have not really found them helpful in building language skills. They seem like basic lessons and activities that are randomly included. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how all the pertinent information for my students is stored in one place including test data, services, classroom modifications, and testing accommodations. I am able to view what services students received the previous year, how long they have been in the country, and what supports they received within the classroom. I can also view if a student has a special education label. It is very user friendly when I am printing the Individual Learning Plans (ILPs) as well as the Notice of Participation for my English Learners. It prints the WIDA standards right on the ILP so teachers and parents can understand the expectations. I am able to print in MANY different languages. There are a few that are unavailable, but I am impressed with the amount of languages that are available. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike the fact that it doesn't talk to the other program we have to use. Occasionally, when data is transferred, the wrong information will populate (trouble recognizing certain languages). I also wish I could see information for students coming from other districts that also use ELLevation to store their data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate the customizable abilities of this software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I am a relatively new user, so it can feel a bit overwhelming at times. It just takes a bit of time to become familiar with all of it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This website helps me keep all of my student records/information organized and readily accessible. I am able to create rosters, groups organized by many different filters as well as contact other ESL teachers in my district. This is especially helpful because I often do not know the names of the elementary schools where the other ESL teachers work. With Ellevation Education this is not a problem. I can find my student's old teachers and contact the teachers via email directly through Ellevation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that when you first log onto my "home page" there is a column called Recent Students. I don't like this because a lot of those students are from past years and I don't want them mixed up with my current list of students. I wish this column was not there.
