What is ALEKS?

Assessment and Learning in Knowledge Spaces is a Web-based, artificially intelligent assessment and learning system. ALEKS uses adaptive questioning to quickly and accurately determine what a student knows, doesn't know, and is ready to learn.  ALEKS avoids multiple choice questions, and instead uses input tools where you type or graph your answer.

What do I need to know if my Instructor is using ALEKS?

• You will have a free trial period of __ days to use ALEKs.
• After the free trial period ends, you will have to purchase an ALEKs code. If you purchased an ALEKs code at the bookstore, wait until the trial period has ended to activate your paid code. 
• The cost to use ALEKs is less than the cost of purchasing a new textbook from the bookstore.
