Forget about percentiles and grade levels. Levebee's diagnostic assessment explains in plain English why a particular student is having trouble learning new concepts and provides personalized, easy-to-follow recommendations on how to help them.
Thanks to an adaptive algorithm, audio instructions, contextual feedback, QR code login, and hundreds of other small details, the diagnostic assessment can be administered to the entire class at once via tablets.
Levebee automatically personalizes exercises for each student according to the research-based progression model of math skills. The pedagogical reasoning behind the algorithm is explained every step of the way, helping you to continually deepen your understanding of the interdependencies of math skills all the way back to early math concepts.
97 % of teachers (out of 1198 surveyed) who tried the Levebee diagnostic assessment with their class, recommend Levebee to other teachers.
We also asked whether students enjoyed the assessment, whether they were able to work independently, and whether teachers learned something new that influenced their teaching. Here are some of their answers:
This form of diagnostic assessment was really enjoyable for the kids, and they didn't have any major issues with it. The results are beautifully clear, and now I know which tasks to choose to be most beneficial for the students' needs. We'll focus on reviewing and practicing skills where the kids had weaker results, as these are crucial for their further development.
Jane, 1st grade teacher
I definitely like the option to access the app via a QR code; it was quick. The overall class results are also very good, so I know what to focus on in my teaching. It's great that parents also have the opportunity to view the results and possibly get recommendations on what to practice. I'll focus on the specific recommended exercises and similar ones.
Luba, 1st grade teacher
I was surprised by the results of some of the children; it was clear that they were better at the math section than at understanding concepts. As a special education teacher, I will try to dedicate some time to certain children during special education care classes. As the deputy head of the school, together with my colleagues from the first grades, we will focus on the specific skills of the children - strengthening and developing them.
Lydia, Special Education Teacher
The kids really enjoyed working on the tablet, and we'll do the diagnostic assessment again in November to compare the results. Two students were above average, while the rest of the class performed similarly. So, we'll be able to work individually with these two students and further develop their math skills. These two stood out, so they'll have more challenging tasks to help them grow, and they'll receive additional work.
Veronica, 1st grade teacher
It was interesting to see how the students think during the various activities. Thanks to the diagnostic assessment, I learned more about their preschool mathematical concepts. It especially confirmed what I had already observed about the students myself.
Jacob, 1st grade teacher and special educator
The kids really enjoyed this activity, even though they struggled with the tasks. The biggest challenge was with the concepts of more/less and arranging sequences of pictures by number. If we had the opportunity and time during lessons, we would conduct similar diagnostic assessments at least once a month. The kids were really engaged with the work. It was something new for them, even though some tasks were quite difficult.
Katherine, 1st grade teacher
I was surprised that the kids were able to focus for quite a long time. I was worried they wouldn't be able to work independently, but the program is very intuitive. It turned out that the kids have trouble identifying the first, last, right before, etc., and we're already working on this area in class. We're focusing on practicing the problematic areas. I'd like to incorporate Levebee more into our lessons.
Martina, 1st grade teacher
The kids really enjoyed the diagnostic assessment. I love how well-designed it is and how it sets an individual level for each student based on the tasks they've mastered. The output of the diagnostic assessment is absolutely perfect. After completing the assessment for the whole class, we'll be incorporating lessons on the identified problem areas into our teaching, in collaboration with the teaching assistant. Of course, we'll be using exercises from Levebee for the kids.
Jana, Special Education Teacher
I was surprised by the results of the diagnostic assessment for a very talented student when it came to logical thinking and numerical calculations. His results were quite weak. I had no idea that he still hadn't solidified his understanding of left-right orientation and struggled with the number sequence, which he had a hard time with in first grade. That's why I'm considering buying headphones to make it easier and more frequent to use the Levebee app in class.
Jessica, 3rd Grade Teacher
We liked the diagnostic assessment. The interface was intuitive, and the length of the assessment was just right. From my perspective, the kids enjoyed the final tasks on vocabulary. On the other hand, they struggled with tasks like the "logical sequence" ("fill in the blank..."). We plan to share the information with the parents and continue working with them.
Helen, Special Education Teacher
The children worked with enthusiasm, and even when they made mistakes, it didn't discourage them. Many of them tried to reach the correct answer, even when encouraged to move on. I was surprised by their limited vocabulary and issues with comprehension. We're already working on it, expanding vocabulary in every lesson, and all parents have been invited to supervise. Many are already using Levebee at home. In class, we only practice it on the interactive whiteboard.
Yvette, 1st grade teacher
I was surprised to find that a large percentage of students haven't mastered pre-mathematical skills. They can recognize numbers 1-10, but determining order was quite challenging for them, and figuring out how much more/less was one of the toughest tasks overall. Thanks to the diagnostic assessment, I now know that we'll need to spend more time on these skills than I initially anticipated. I'll be dedicating much more time to pre-mathematical skills and will integrate math with other subjects to help us catch up.
Ms. Jane, 1st grade teacher
Given the severe communication disorders, where understanding is very limited, I was surprised that the children didn't ask for help. I am very pleased with the detailed evaluation of the diagnostic assessment. I plan to mention this at the parent-teacher meeting, where parents will be introduced to the possibility of working with the "Levebee" program and the challenges the children are facing. I will definitely follow the advice on what to focus on with specific children, and I offer the children tutoring with the help of the "Levebee" app, as we are a boarding school and the children go home for the weekend. I have already arranged with the school administration to purchase the license again after the free access ends.
Alena, 1st grade teacher
I really appreciate the simplicity of logging in and the ability for kids to work on tasks independently on tablets, which they really enjoyed. I also value the clear summary of class results and the tips for interesting tasks. I'm dedicating more time to the preparation period, and I'll be differentiating tasks more to better meet the individual needs of the children and support their development.
