I don't disagree with homework, it can be useful for keeping topics fresh in you mind and can be done right, but sparx is nowhere near right, literally. Just for example, I got a question something like "What is found in plant meristems" Obviously I answered with "stem cells" Their trash ai says it's wrong then forces me to 'learn' it, the answer was correct when I checked on the second try thing where it mixes up the question, and it's all because of their ai

The ai constantly marks correct answers wrong I am a top student in science in my school and no matter how hard I try the ai marks me wrong and I spend hours doing “30 minutes “ worth of homework even though my mark has never dropped below 95%

Let me get one thing clear: when I first started using Sparx Science, I somewhat enjoyed it. Crazy, right? I know it is. But I found it easy, and I made sure my answers were worded in such a way that I could get it done as fast as possible while actively trying not to think about how dogshit this website actually is. That was, until, they added flashcards. Suddenly, if you do not answer the question in under what seems like only a second, you are wrong. You are a failure. You are a disgrace. I just don’t get it; why are WE, as CHILDREN/TEENAGERS, being forced to answer WORDED questions with worded answers in such a short amount of time? It makes no sense. I, myself, have to take a few seconds to understand the question properly before answering, so I can ensure I have the right answer. Flashcards completely disregards that factor, instead basing learning off how fast you can answer a question, compared to actually answering it correctly. There are many others out there in the same situation, and we feel completely helpless during this task. We have to repeat questions over, and over, and over again, until we can finally memorise the beginning of that question to answer it correctly. Not LEARN, but memorise it. Those two are not the same things, let me make clear. I have not learned anything from flashcards, nor will I ever. Nobody I know has ever learned anything from them either, so I see a good opportunity to take the entire thing down. Or, better yet, simply delete the website. I’m sure the millions of pre-teens and teens in the UK would love to see the end of such a horrible, sloppy, cruel website. As of writing this, I’m currently in the middle of a flashcards task. How horrible must this website be for me to stop in the middle of rapid-fire questions to write a 1-star review about how awful it is? I do not wish for any more students to have to go through this waste of time. However, as we are not adults, we do not get any say at all, as there are more adults who believe that teenagers’ autonomies are threatening or non-existent. I wish you all the worst.

I am a grade 9 student for biology and chemistry and average 8s in physics. This website is horrendous. The wording is always unclear and questions often get the definitions of terms wrong. Because I answer to a grade nine level my responses are often more in depth than the algorithm can understand and it will just mark me with a zero for most questions. I understand that due to it being an automatic marking system it cannot understand more in depth answers however this sets an awful precedent for students as they are not only forced to give lower level responses to avoid wrong answers but they are also taught incorrect definitions. I think teachers can stand to do their job by marking 30 sheets a week.

Sparx science is a nightmare I will put in an answer tell me it's wrong than it proceed to tell me the answer i just put in is the correct answer. I also think thing that making students do 100% of the work or get a detention is harsh but the problem is the hints because half the time the hints DONT HELP BECAUSE IT DOSENT TELL ME WHAT I NEED TO DO.I have been stuck on a single sparx question for over 10 minutes before because the hints don't help and I need 100% complete.
