My Take
I think IXL is a great tool that can be an asset to students of all levels. It adjusts to their level and the students find it motivating. Even in short periods,learning can occur. The reports that teachers can create provide useful information.
How I Use It
I use IXL in a variety of ways. For homework, students are expected to spend 15 minutes on IXL 3-5 times a week. In class, I use IXL as a mathstation to support what we are studying. I assign specific skills that match what unit we are working on. Students rotate through the computer pod as one of their stations. .

Good Skill Reinforcement - Horrible Company
I loved the free trial version. I loved the data it was returning. My students were enjoying the computer-based tool. Then I saw the price and cringed. I work in a tiny rural k-12 school with less than 350 students in it. I am the only person in the school who is likely to use the program so I need 10 student licenses at best. I emailed for a quote and was given a price of $299 a year for 25 licenses. I explained my restrictions and they came back with a counteroffer of 10 student licenses on a "family plan" for $439 a year. I'm a teacher for god's sake, do they really think I'm that stupid? Why would anyone purchase a program from a company that is willing to con schools out of valuable resources? Please do not make any purchases from this company. They are scamming schools out of money and treating educators like idiots.

I didn't, and my children did not like IXL.
Sorry, but i think it was horrible. There were many bugs and my children said when they got their answers wrong, it was to complicated to understand the "incorrect" page. They were more intrested in the math though. My kids said they hated the ELA part.
