This program is generally helpful. I mostly gave it three stars because it over-explains the concept, which is an amazing problem to have. Occasionally there is, however, no correct answer on multiple choice tests. As far as helping me understand concepts goes, Savvas Realize is a good program. Unfortunately, the bads outweigh the goods at times.
This website make me stupider. My school has used this for a year and I have forgotten how to do algebra. This website is designed for stupid people and never loads. The interactive exercises suck and I learnt more in 5th grade (NOT KIDDING).!@#$%^&* this website!
I can't think of a time were I didn't go home and cry. My teacher teaches the topic great, but then Savvas just makes it ten times harder. Last night, I spent two hours crying because I couldn't understand how it was even remotely similar to what he taught me. Feeling very suicidal because of my grades dropping because of Savvas. 0/10 kill me pls
Savvas is trapping children in a never ending loop of stress and homework. My child, Johnathan, has talked to me about how he no longer wants to live in this world because of his teachers' excess use of Savvas. If the platform were to be banned, children like my son would no longer have such thoughts. It is not fault of the children nor the teachers, but the corrupt school board behind all this. By signing this petition, you will be freeing children across America and various other countries.
Thank You,

We assigned a writing prompt to our 4th graders. Throughout the entire grade, we had 23 students unexpectedly logged out. All their work was lost. Several cried. We reached out to the Savvas help center. They said we had the Savvas Easy Bridge Easy window open. There was no alert to close it. My question is why is there no auto save on the program? Seems like auto save is an easy feature to add and is so incredibly needed to protect the hard work being put into these essay by our young students.
Savvas is terrible.Savvas is very confusing.Sometime,me and my mom are not able to figure out the questions.I have no Idea why the school district uses savvas.Sometimes,I want to kill savas ¨easy¨bridge.I don´t recommend you to use this app
My Daughter uses savvas as an everyday learning platform for school, and from what she has told me that it isn't that great, overall yes it helps her sometimes, but most of the time it either gives her about 2 chances, as a learning platform, it should have at least page numbers on where you can find your answer, or if the student gets it wrong 3 or more times, give them a hint on where they could find their answers. It is sad that my daughter has to use this platform for learning everyday, it's a shame and not helpful, sometimes when she picks her answer it marks it as wrong, when she looks over the answer she picked was actually right. Sometimes it never even has the answers in the passages.
I wish i could give 0 star
I wish i could give 0 star. Don't use Pearson. I didn't have a choice. It's not compatible with major web severs. What a stupid design. I turn off the cookies, stop blocking pop-ups and restart the browser. Gosh. It still doesn't work. Whoever design the stupid software, please use your Brain and make it work. It should be gone!
Savvas Realize is most likely the worst "learning" website I've ever come across and will ever come across as a middle school student. A truly bland and horrendous website with words smaller than a singular extra-fine grain of sand. I am sadly forced to use this monstrosity every day in my ELA class and I despise every nanosecond of it.
Each time I do homework on the website, I get triggered a lot. A lot of my classmates also complain about the website doing weird things, such as not loading at all, or even not being able to get back into the website. As you can see, this website SUCKS.
This website is Extremely Frustrating for both Educators and Students! I use My View with my students and If you have not clicked on all components it still states in Progress. Often times the features do not load, while other times they do load and the components are unable to use. I am a 5th grade teacher in Massachusetts and we are working on Unit 4 Week 3 and my kiddos were excited to start decoding their cryptograms and none of the components were usable! On the main screen, it looks like something is going to pop up (a new window?) but disappears just as quickly. Then under the Weekly Activity, it tells you to drag & drop the letters to decode the message & the letters are able to be dragged but do not stay dropped!
My math teacher uses it, and it is very annoying to use. We never get explained how to do an assignment. We are told to figure things out with this website and it doesn't tell us how to do anything, and our teacher doesn't either.
The worst thing about this is the fact that the homework / practice is 20-50 questions, and the tests are about 4-10 questions long. With a teacher that grades purely with summative assessments, getting one question wrong makes my grade about an 87%- 90%. It is hard to get an "A" when making a silly mistake ruins your grade. Along with that, as I stated before, some questions are glitchy, and need to be in a specific order. The algorithm ignores commutative/associative properties in set notation, which is by far what ruined my grade. Finally, the "hints" when you get a question wrong are completely irrelevant, or they have too little information to get you back on track with the program. This is why you should stick to Khan Academy or flippedmath.com.
It's an officially the worst thing ever existed! I literally died while doing it! And the teacher was forcing us get a perfect score, and yell at us if we don't! And it kicks ppl out every five minutes fr. Also it has 6-7 parts a question! The Saint Emu Otori, the God of WONDERHOY doesn't approve it!
This site TO ME, is truly disappointing... The fact when I get to my quick check on my test, for instance. 3 questions, I get one wrong. 67%. Why does it not ADD the practice buddy questions to the score instead of getting an 'average' of both of them separately? If it would have. I would have got an overall score of 88%. But no. I got a 71%. This is sad that they have to make kids test scores look bad when its really there own problem. Unfortunately I have no choice to continue using this. If it weren't for online learning and being forced to use it because there is no other platform. We all know what would happen to Savvas. Most likely go out of business. And this rounds it up for now. In my arrogant opinion I do NOT recommend this...
Savvas is so stupid. It takes a long time to load the textbook, and even then, the textbook barely even works. It takes 5 minutes to load one page. Say you missclick and you go to the wrong chapter, you press the back arrow button, and it buffers for so long. It just loads super slowly, and when it actually does, most of the page is cut off. Don't even get me started on the grading system. If you forget one little symbol it deducts points for the entire question. It just sucks. If I were a teacher I most certainly would not use this garbage fire of a website.
You are corrupting children and ruining our learning experience. You are the ones making school a horrible experience. Not only are you teaching us nothing you are creating a dystopic school environment. You are impacting the way we learn and not in a good way. You are causing extra stress and making school a place that is almost impossible to learn so just stop, you are ruining our lives.
Savvas is one of the worst websites I have ever used. It causes an insane level of frustration. I have almost broken my computer because of savvas. It will make you lose points on a test because of its stupid grading technique. I have lost over 10 points because I forgot to add the 0 in 7.5 XD.
Just try it out yourself. You'll see how bad it is. Half the time, you can't even submit anything. It will say that there was an error uploading an assignment, it will say an answer that is correct is incorrect, etc. Don't use it!
I have to agree with some of the reviews that are mentioned here. The app loads slowly quite often and the page sometimes glitches and you are not able to see the entire page. If you go back and to try to adjust the page it does not stick. If you select an answer and the page is still not cooperating your answer will be incorrect. My daughter selected an answer for a test of 5 questions and it was marked wrong because some how the answer she chose was not saved. Instead of an 80% for 1 wrong she was marked at 60% because one of her correct responses wasn't saved. Give me a break with this. Who has time to just make this up? I know I don't. How many more negative reviews do you need before this educational app is restructured? Also, I advised my daughter moving forward to screenshot all her answers before submitting her work so she gets the credit for work that is incorrectly marked.
