[LM_NET] Target/Web AR Program

["Ada G. Kent" <agkent@COLUMBUS.RR.COM>]

Buckeye Hello, Everyone!



I recall a discussion at the beginning of the school year about AR's new Web
Program. I'd like some current information from those of you who use the web
program.



 The AR Program is working wonderfully well at my school perhaps because we
don't use it as the total program. It is only one small part of many
approaches to reading. For the first time in my 16 years at my school, we
have kids really reading.



I just realized today that we have made 500 teacher tests. To get more
tests, we need to pay $2.62 per test. My problem with that is they are
selling those tests in blocks of twenty-not on book by book demand. The
salesperson at AR suggested we try the web program.



For those of you who have the web program, how do you like it?



Is it worth the expense--$8.99 per student per year?



Have you experienced any down time due to web problems?



I'll post a hit.
