The videos in Mathavia and Math Stream are in English and need the Spanish captions. The captions are very fast and are not easy to follow. Also Mathavia has the content in Spanish but the explanation is in English and is not truly a Spanish resource.
Global issue throughout the math materials in the videos provided in Mathavia and math stream

Module 1, Lesson 1 and Lesson 2 do not have pre-launch protocol. The protocol provides a workspace and Is found in Spanish and is missing from lesson 1 and lesson 2 I think its helpful to the students to be able to work out problems and find out what they are learning.
Module 1, lesson 1 and lesson 2. lesson format.
Thank you for reaching out. This workspace is located at Topic 1: Topic MATHia Adaptive Problem-Solving Unit 1: Getting Started, and is titled "Getting Started."
I do like the way the presenters go over the problems within the videos. They do explain them very well and are at student friendly vocabulary. the only drawback is that its not in Spanish, keeping up with the captions is difficult because you are focusing on how to figure out the problems.

The video has captions in Spanish when the instructor is talking but when it gets to the practice page the words are all in English. This needs to be translated to Spanish for students to be successful.

The hints that are provided in the Turbotot hints section are only in English and there isn't a caption or toggle button to allow the student to translate the hints in Spanish.
On the video the section labeled Turbotot hints
Thank you for your feedback regarding the language mix in this asset. The video portion is presented in Spanish to support comprehension and provide students with accessible input. The accompanying questions are in English to encourage practice with academic vocabulary and align with the language of classroom instruction and assessment. This combination is designed to scaffold learning by reinforcing understanding in Spanish while providing opportunities to build proficiency in English. We appreciate your observation and will continue to review feedback as part of our evaluation process.
The videos are too long for the students. It will benefit to break the videos into smaller sessions. Most of the videos are over 20 minutes long.
The videos could be improved by separating them into shorter videos, or chunking the videos, and embedding questions to check for student understanding.
In other modules and lessons, the videos are shorter, and it would help to have shorter videos in these lessons.

Thank you for the feedback.
The lessons have a section where students work independently to practice a problem on the material being taught. During the time that the student is working on the problem an icon shows Need Help for students to use. While this is very helpful it would be great if there was a toggle to Spanish or if it was also included in Spanish for students to get help with the problem. I think its a great resource since the hints are there and are helpful in reminding students what steps to take when figuring out the problem on their own.

The video is in English with Spanish captions only. I would suggest that the video be presented in Spanish as well due to the higher vocabulary content for possible struggling readers in this grade level. This way the content can be delivered in two different learning modes for students.

I noticed that the Turbotot does not provide any information for the students during this lesson. It would be helpful to have some explanation in Spanish to help those students who are watching this video understand if it is not completely in Spanish . The Turbotot would be great hints in Spanish to help the students folllow along with key vocabulary or strategies.

The mathstream videos with the teal blue color are not in Spanish and do not have a way to toggle to the Spanish language. There are captions in Spanish that you need to set up while you are watching the video but all the examples that are written on the board by the instructor are in English. It would be beneficial if the entire mathstream video was in Spanish and even the instructions with explanations by the teacher were in Spanish to help students who are visual and auditory learners.

The material in the videos does have the closed caption capability for the students but the questions and answers are all in English and do not have a way to translate them into Spanish It seems like the speaker speaks too quickly and does not give students time to process or work through what they have just learned. Maybe there should be more interactive type places where students can practice what they ar learning.

Preview Skill stream videos are very long and students would tend to lose interest. It may be better to have a short instruction video then right away have a practice for students to internalize what they learned in the instructional part of the video.
In every Mathvia Connection where the instructor is giving a lesson with the white board
Thank you for the feedback.
Everytime you answer the questions in the interactive videos you go back to the video and have to click on CC to get the Spanish captions to work. This is tedious since the video is explaining what the student has to do to be successful with the work.
The CC on the video for Analyzing Relationships in Tables Math stream.
Thank you sincerely for the feedback. We are investigating methods to keep closed captioning on after the interactive questions, and we plan to address it.
Video is in English with Spanish captions. The video with captions is too fast and students who may need help with reading the Spanish captions may have difficulty keeping up.

Thank you for the feedback! We are investigating Spanish language dubbing options.
The flow of the lessons and topics are very easy to follow and there are various examples for students to understand the concepts being taught, the only drawback is that not everything is in Spanish. The Mathia lessons can be toggled to Spanish but other than that everything else is in English.It would be beneficial to have all the material in Spanish without having to have closed captions. But the layout for the materials is student friendly and easy for students to work on independently.

In the lessons where the questions and answers are in Spanish I found it helpful that there was a button for students to press that would read to them.. This helps students who may struggle with reading and understanding problems visually and need an auditory reminder of what they are learning.
Preview Analizar distribuciones con forma, centro y dispersión
In the Mathavia lessons the material such as the questions and descriptions are in Spanish but the videos are in English with Spanish subtitles. It would be useful if the entire resource was in Spanish so that students would not have to read the captions and could listen and watch the video without having to read and or understand the English words provided in the video. In some of the videos the labels, hints, solve it and Im done are also in English. while other videos have these words in Spanish

The video has captions in Spanish but when it get to the questions and answer part it is all in English and there isn't a way to change the language on the question part of the episode. I suggest that the questions be put in both languages or there is a way to toggle the language from English to Spanish.
Witihin the video there are points where a question comes up for students to answer

The language in the sentences and word problems are in Spanish but the videos are in English and need the caption switched to Spanish. The person speaking is also teaching at a fast pace which makes it difficult for EB students to follow along. But the questions and answers are in Spanish which is helpful.

The video is in English with Spanish captions only. I would suggest that if the product is promoted as a Spanish product for the videos to be in Spanish as well as there might be students who are in 6th grade who have reading difficulties and cannot keep up with the captions. The Turbo hints and problems to be solved within the video are in Spanish as well.

It may be helpful to change the length of time since the late payments occurred, or to add an entry that shows an impact with more years of history within the retention period.
Grade 6, Module 4, Topic 4, Topic MATHia Adaptive Problem-Solving, Unit 13: Understanding Financial, College, and Career Options, Workspace 1: Comparing Credit and Debit Cards
Thank you for the suggestion. We chose not to implement this change because the goal of the workspace is to help middle school students understand general impacts on a credit score, not to explore time-based nuances in credit reporting. Adding examples with varied lengths of history would introduce unnecessary complexity and go beyond the grade-level intent of the TEKS aligned to this workspace. The current examples effectively support the learning goals by showing clear, age-appropriate cause-and-effect relationships.
It would be helpful to extend the learning to order more than two whole numbers when they are being compared on a number line.
Grade 6, Module 3, Topic 1, Topic MATHia Adaptive Problem-Solving, Unit 2: Absolute Value, Workspace 1: Using Absolute Value
Thank you for the suggestion. We chose not to implement this change because the purpose of the workspace is to support students in reasoning about absolute value and comparison statements in context, not to practice ordering multiple numbers. While TEKS 6.2B includes ordering rational numbers on a number line, this task addresses the standard by using number lines to compare values in real-world situations. Extending the comparisons to include more than two values would add unnecessary complexity and distract from the conceptual goal of interpreting and reasoning about absolute value in meaningful contexts.
It would be helpful to define lifetime income and provide an example on how lifetime income is affected by different annual salaries.
Grade 6, Module 4, Topic 4, Topic MATHia Adaptive Problem-Solving, Unit 13: Understanding Financial, College, and Career Options, Workspace 2: Making College and Career Choices
Thank you sincerely for the suggestion. We will implement this change because the workspace's goal is to prepare students for college and career choices, and the impact of different annual salaries on lifetime income directly supports this objective.
