Affordable Reading Comprehension (Without the Back Ache) — Hawker Brownlow Digital — CARS & STARS — Reading Comprehension

Affordable Reading Comprehension (Without the Back Ache)

There are lots of advantages to CARS & STARS Online, the revolutionary digital reading comprehension program that uses twelve reading strategies to improve student learning. We could talk about how CARS & STARS Online marks student responses instantly and automatically, so there’s no marking for teachers – no nights of hunching over endless copies of the same piece of student work, trying to decide what is right or wrong while gradually losing faith in the concept. 

We could also tell you about how CARS & STARS Online gives teachers, students, parents, principals and other stakeholders immediate, 24/7 access both to student results and to complete overviews of student, class, group and even whole-school progress, from anywhere and on any web-compatible modern device.

But impressive though these things are, they’re maybe not quite as exciting as the fact that CARS & STARS Online is so affordable. With a variety of subscription options to suit anyone, the program is a fraction of the cost of the old-style printed book version, because every CARS & STARS subscription gets full access to every level of the program digitally. There are no hidden charges for extra levels or further resources. Once you’ve signed up for a CARS & STARS Online account you’ve got every resource for every reading level currently available.

At the moment, this includes content roughly equal to about twenty separate printed books. That’s a lot of books to buy for every student in a class, or even every teacher. It’s a lot of books for students and teachers alike to remember to bring to class, and to have to carry every day. A program of this size in printed resources would be both a lot more expensive, and a lot heavier. 

CARS & STARS Online offers unprecedented access to its state-of-the-art reading comprehension system, at prices that won’t break the bank compared to the same amount of content in printed form, and in a weightless digital form that won’t break your back. There’s never been a better time to go digital.

I've found CARS & STARS Online has really helped in improving my children's reading skills. The skills were all clearly presented with a lot of samples and practice opportunities. The student report also gives the parents a clear guide as to which areas need reinforcement and which areas each child is strong in.

I have found CARS & STARS Online very beneficial, especially during our time teaching and learning remotely. The ability to track live what the students are doing was helpful to ensure that they were remaining on task and to provide feedback.

I am a bit of a technophobe but using CARS & STARS Online has certainly made life easier and the kids have found it easy to navigate.

Jo Oram
Teacher from Prescott College Southern

CARS & STARS Online has become a very useful tool for my staff to implement effective teaching and learning programs. Having a tool that gives timely assessment results, meets students at their level of need and allows them to see exactly what students are working on in real-time is time effective and impacts on future goals.

The detailed assessment data generated by CARS & STARS Online informs the specific direction of their reading and comprehension teaching. Students report they enjoy the tasks and feel a real sense of accomplishment as they work through the lessons and assessments at their own pace.
