The process for calculating reading levels and editing the tests for conformity to the program's standards is time-consuming, so new individual tests are not added lightly. A student with fewer correct answers does not receive any points. No, the program allows only one try, although students with extenuating circumstances are encouraged to explain the difficulty to the librarian and teacher. AR quizzes may be taken by the students with their teachers permission in their classroom on their networked computers at times designated by each teacher. In addition, teachers may bring the class to the library with a pass at any time during the school day.
Teachers can print a class or individual report to see how their students are doing.
Certainly a parent may ask a student to print a copy from time to time to take home. It will never take the place of opportunities to read for extended periods of time without interruption, chances to discuss what is read with others who appreciate good books, and the influence of trusted adults who model a love of reading.
