Saw a huge drop in my kid's math scores after Khan Academy changed their layout

Daughter was scoring 85-90 on her weekly quizzes for 6 months. Then Khan Academy updated their interface in February, removed the mastery tracking and progress bars. Her scores dropped to 60s within 3 weeks. Turns out she relied on seeing those visual milestones to stay motivated. Has anyone else seen this with their kids after the redesign?

Was she using the progress bars as a checklist or more like a game?

Honestly @viola171, I used to see progress bars as just a checklist, but your post kinda made me realize they can actually feel like a game with all that visual feedback.
