FAQs

How do I see answered questions on IXL? ›

Scroll down to find the IXL accomplishments section. Here, you'll see an overview of the student's IXL usage (questions answered, time spent, skills practiced) and a breakdown of math and ELA skills they've worked on. Pro Tip: Hover over the pie chart to see how many skills have been practiced in each strand!

Students will need to answer as many as 10 questions correctly in a row to achieve mastery. For most skills on IXL, students will have to complete a minimum of 28 questions to earn a SmartScore of 100. When a student achieves a score of 100 on IXL, you can feel confident that they have truly mastered that skill.

The Student Quiz Results report will show the number of questions they got correct, their score for the quiz, and the amount of time they spent on it. Below that you can review individual questions they answered, which display their answer and the correct answer.

A skill is mastered when the SmartScore reaches 100, but the number of questions it takes to master a skill varies with every student. To continuously motivate students, IXL recommends setting other practice milestones along the way to mastery. A score of 80 is proficient, and a score of 90 is considered excellent.

Score Grid:

Like a digital grade book, this report shows you if students have completed assignments and reached their SmartScore goals across all skills for one or more grades, skills students have practiced, or skills you've suggested.

Have you heard the news? Students have answered more than 100 BILLION questions on IXL! Read up on this incredible milestone here: bit.ly/IXL100bil.

It's calculated based on question difficulty, answer accuracy, and consistency. When your child is getting the hang of the concept, their SmartScore will increase, and their questions will get harder.

With IXL, it is possible to never be done with homework. If a student is required to get to a SmartScore of 85 and are struggling with a concept, it would take them far longer to complete than the 20 questions of book work. Some students of BAMS agree that IXL is causing them too much stress.

Conclusion: Despite its popularity, IXL falls short in delivering a truly effective learning experience due to its limited engagement, lack of personalization, and inadequate feedback mechanisms.

IXL is proven to help schools drive academic gains for English language learners at all levels. From real-time assessment insights to personalized practice, IXL helps your ELL students build confidence and become proficient in academic language.

Is Khan Academy better than IXL? ›

IXL has a strong focus on math and language arts, while Khan Academy offers a wider range of subjects. Consider your learning style: If your child is a visual learner, then you may prefer Khan Academy's videos and articles. If your child is an auditory learner, then you may prefer IXL's games and quizzes.

Real-time student diagnostic data provides teachers with a personalized Recommendations Wall for each student, listing future skills to practice. IXL is a great tool to practice and reinforce topics.

Grade level guide: 100 = 1st grade, 200 = 2nd grade, 300 = 3rd grade, 400 - 4th grade, 500 = 5th grade, 600 = 6th grade, 700 = 7th grade, 800 = 8th grade, and 900 = 9th grade. By clicking on the IXL image above or the word IXL, students will be forwarded to the log in page.

For example, a score of 350 indicates that a student understands about 50% of 3rd-grade material and a score of 400 indicates readiness to begin working on 4th-grade skills. These levels range from 0-1300, with 0-50 representing pre-K, 50-100 kindergarten, and 1300 representing the end of 12th grade.

An IXL Diagnostic level of 500 represents readiness to begin working on fifth-grade level skills. When a level is displayed as a circle with a star in it, your exact level has been revealed! Continue answering questions to pinpoint your overall levels, reading level, and exact level in every strand.

For parents and kids, IXL makes learning fun and enriches at-home learning with built-in support for each child's individual learning journey. Kids have answered over 140 billion questions on IXL.
