Description

Description:

The myON app provides access to digital books from myON reader, a personalized, online literacy program that matches student’s interests and their reading level to a recommended book list. With over 5500 enhanced digital books with reading supports, students have access to all types of books and topics that will entice them to continue reading. Using the app, students can link their account to their school, and then read any book even when the Internet isn’t available.



Hear what students from across the country are saying:

· John in Florida, “I get to choose what I want to read.”

· Emilia in Illinois, “There are a lot of books for any age. You get to read as many books as you like because they keep adding books to your account.”

· Sally in South Carolina, “I like to read on myON reader because it’s fun.”

· Sam in Indiana, “When I forget my library book, I can still get books from myON reader.”



Hear what teachers and parents are saying about myON reader:

· Teacher Mr. Newhouse, “This student is just one of many 6th graders at our school that have been sucked into myON after being reluctant. I have been amazed at how even the noisiest 6th grade classroom becomes silent and focused when myON is brought into play.”

· Teacher Ms. Carnes: “myON makes kids want to read. Even my reluctant readers are excited to go onto MyON to read because they can all have access to the same text and can share it with their friends. Even if they can't read it for themselves, the system will read it for them and the students can then discuss the book together.”

· Parent in Indiana: As a parent of a child doing the myON Reading program, I have to say I LOVE this program. Paige's Lexile score has now doubled in the very short time she has been reading with this program. Her fluency has improved so much, which helps her better understand what she is reading. She has read over 80 books in the last couple of months. Her test scores in Reading have gotten so much better. We had considered getting her a tutor for Reading, because she could read, but not really comprehend what she was reading, when she was done. She now has an A in Reading with NO tutor.

· Parent in Florida: My child recognizes more and more words by reading with myON. She is only in Kindergarten but now reads books way above her level. We also like that there are so many books to choose from.



Version 1.0

· Students have their unique login and password to access over 3000 enhanced digital books

Buggy, needs some rethinking

Anything that lets my daughter continue to satisfy her thirst of reading deserves SOME praise, so that’s the three stars. But I can’t give it more, since there are just too many issues to ignore.

1. Every time you leave the app, you’re signed out of your MyOn account — meaning that you have to sign back on when you come back to the app.
2. Signing back on is broken; when it asks you to sign back on, and you enter your password, you are immediately told that your password is incorrect. The only way to sign back on is to go through the add-a-new-account pathway; signing on THAT way works, and it’s smart enough to not duplicate the account. But you have to figure that out, and then know how to do that each and every time.
3. If you’re not on a wifi network, you can’t read books — it says you need to be signed it. Maybe this is by design, or maybe this is an unintended consequence of it logging you off every time you quit — the only times we’ve tried is when my daughter opened the iPad in the car to read, and (perhaps because of the logged-out bug) she was told she can’t read until she logs in… and we’re in the car, so that’s not possible. It makes it useless.
4. We’ve found MANY times when the images in books don’t show up; just a blank page where they should be.

If they fix these issues, I’m sure this will be awesome. But until then… three stars.

Awesome

I honestly had low expectations because of the reviews, but it let me sign in and read some books with audio! Unlike the website where you had to actually read the books. If you just read the books, why not just buy the books. This app outdone themselves

lasted updated 2 years ago. No software or maintenance.

Super basic functionality. No content sync from pc and no book recommendations based on level. Seems none cares about kids reading
