Using artificial intelligence, ALEKS determines precisely what a student knows and what he or she is ready to learn within a given subject area.
Because ALEKS is web-based and operates through individual student log-ins, it is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, from virtually any computer with internet access - at home, school, and the library. It is a learning assistant that provides targeted, individualized instruction.
