This is the kind of stuff that I hate using on this computer, I would rather read a book than use my laptop for this, its so boring, has the same sounds, and acts like its for children. I know it isn't the actual company's fault, just our jackass district.

I remembered using this in 4th grade, although I hated it, it's nostalgia. Now I use the TT 2.0 instead which has nice graphics, but 95% of the content in this app is outdated and has outdated graphics.

As a researcher and educator, I have tracked schools and states which use istation as it was meant to be used, as an intervention program. My focus was on the reading program. I reviewed the before and after testing results in 5 different states. I spoke to parents, teachers, students and district administrators. The stake holders who use istation spoke very highly of it and the bottom line with any program is results. The results of the school districts speak for themselves. All, not one, not most, all showed growth in reading. What makes the program valid is the consistency of the results for everyone. While the growth varied from district to district and many different intangibles play a potential factor in results, the strongest correlation I saw was those districts who used the program for multiple years showed the most growth. I also found in doing my study, that I had to disqualify several schools and districts data who did not meet the minimum requirements of using the program for a specified period each week. Like any program out there, if you use it sparingly and not on a consistent basis, you will not get the results. Lastly, it's important to understand three separate studies from the Florida Center for Reading Research, Oregon University and John Hopkins University all did similar studies and their results concluded the same findings as I did with istation. There are also other intervention programs which have been shown to be successful based upon research, but there are only a few which meet the stringent criteria set forth by the above mentioned studies. My basis for posting this information is to give an informed and research based opinion rather than a personal opinion without merit which unfortunately so many reviews seem to be these days.

Terrible! Rushes you, makes you feel like you are dumb when you are in 2nd grade and it's asking you to write a 5 page book report because you are to "Smart".They Say TV rots your brain...This Does

For 6 years I ve done Istation, and in 6 years I have learned 1 thing... I hate Istation, the program seems like it comes from 1985, the lessons repeat endlessly, and this so called learning application, is berated, teased, and despised by every single person I know.

oof

This app is child abuse it is very boring and old looking id rather spend my money on other apps like Education Galaxy then this GARBAGE(to all the districts that buy Istation ) Their is no fun game and "The Right Stuff University" should be called "Child Abuse Univeristy

I wish I could rate it 0 stars. Every month I have to go through the torture of the Right Stuff University, more like the Rekt Stuff University. Bruh like even math is better than this reading trash. Even games made with Unity look better than this.Copyright made in 2000. Update the graphics. I remember using it a couple of years ago, and not even the resolution has been changed. This was made with 1 dollar, one voice. Do they just stay in the office playing Fortnite while their creation is destroying our souls second by second. AVOID AT ALL COSTS.I just looked up the creator and some realistic paintings came up. Why is Istation not like this, do they want depression on children? Even my teachers say, "you can get on istation, education galaxy" and who knows what. Teachers don't know how much we get tortured. We are going to have no soul with the data pod and the opening and closing of the istation math doors. I just don't understand why somebody thought up of doing a soul-killing program with 90's quality. I'd rather be playing the most boring NES game instead of this. Even old car ads have better quality. I can't believe that this is a thing. Even though I hate it, it's nostalgia because I hadn't used it for a couple of years. It's been launched for more than 20 years, how is it still alive? More than 3 quarters of the kids that do this hate it, and that other little bit of kids that love it are brainwashed by thinking this is the #1 learning thing ever. That is wrong...

Its good but,the graphics and horrible, and they talk to us like we are 4 year olds,now, my 5th grade classes use this mostly our reading teacher Mr.V but at times, its fine, but after like, 30 minutes or so, you wanna just..well...QUIT! i mean really, the should just, upgrade it, then everyone will like it more, but still, i rather do a 25 paged history assessment on paper then this,no offense.

This app sucks badly. I am in 6th grade and I am doing work that I did in 3rd. I have made a 100 on the star test twice so I know that I am not stupid. I think that they ran out of content so that is why I do the same thing over anover again.

I think iStation is for babies, and our teachers mysteriously got it confused. On the pretest, it asked us to spell words like benevolent, and i got all of them right, but after it asked me the spellings of ANT later. And I don't care who Paige Turner is, but every time I log on it takes me to that! And it shows stories like 'The Ant And the Grasshopper". I wouldn't be surprised if a Kindergartner knew that story!

This app is not good at all. It teaches things that we already know and it repeats it self for ever. Also, after you pause your lesson it restarts and I will have to do it all over again. These are only some of the bad things your app has. I am only saying these things so whom ever codes this app will make it better for students but if you do not this app is still very bad. Just trying to help. You should honestly start coding it better cause if not, it does not look good.

THIS TERRIBLE COMPANY MADE ME WAIT IN THE DRIVE THROUGH OR 22 HOURS!!! then i realized it wasn't a restaurant. but really this thing sucks...makes me want to throw my laptop............istation=evil kids

Istation is made for 2nd graders who cant make their own choices, not for middle schoolers who are 100% capable of making their own decisions . When i found out me and my fellow classmates would have to use istation in class, i was inflamed . THE ENTIRE PROGRAM IS MADE FOR CHILDREN WHO INCAPABLE OF NOTICING THINGS WRONG WITH A THING THAT THEY WERE TOLD TO DO BY THE TEACHER WHO ALSO AGREES THE PROGRAM IS FLAWED BUT CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE THERE BOSS IS FORCEING IT ON INNOCENT CHILDREN . other than that , 5 stars.=)

If i could give this app a 0, i would. This is a complete waste of time and doesn't teach you anything. Seeing other reviews, i can see that many students hate the piece of trash app. I think that teachers should not make they're students use this app. I personally think this app should be shutdown and deleted off the web.

Not fun

TRASH
