What is ALEKS? - FEU High School

What is ALEKS?

ALEKS uses artificial intelligence to determine what you know, what you don’t know, and what you are most ready to learn. ALEKS then creates a personalized learning plan that gets you to the finish line in the most efficient way. 

Consider it as a personal virtual tutor that uses AI algorithm to help a student to master learning areas where help is needed. As soon as a student gains access to the course, s/he is given an initial knowledge check so ALEKS can assess student’s knowledge state. Using its AI algorithm, ALEKS will list the topics the student knows and does not know, then, personalizes the learning environment by selecting the right learning materials and topics that the student is ready to learn.ALEKS helps students improve their learning by personalizing the contents and activities and enabling knowledge retention through periodic knowledge checks. The student’s learning path is optimized by cycles of learning assessments so students can easily remember the knowledge and concepts they learned. This cycle continues until the time s/he is ready to continue for the next course.   

Personalize and Prepare to Learn

On Day 1, students take an Initial Knowledge Check that determines their unique knowledge state, giving them credit for what they already know. This provides instructors valuable insights of class preparedness. Within the course structure you have created, ALEKS then personalizes a path for each student.

Motivate & Retain

ALEKS only provides students topics they are Ready to Learn, students learn topics at an average rate of 94% in ALEKS. They won’t waste time on topics they already understand or get frustrated by topics they are not ready for.

Expedite Completion

Because ALEKS gives every student the opportunity to succeed, students save time and money through improved pass rates, accelerated courses and opportunities to place higher.

Initial Knowledge Check

Once you register, you will take a brief tutorial on how to use the system. Next, you will complete an Initial Knowledge Check. Its purpose is to figure out what you know and don’t know, so that you can begin with material you are ready to learn. 

Take the ALEKS Knowledge Checks honestly and seriously so that the system can accurately measure your knowledge of course material.
