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 exactly what a student
knows and doesn't know in a course. ALEKS then instructs the student on
the topics she is most ready to learn. As a student works through a
course, ALEKS periodically reassesses the student to ensure that topics
learned are also retained. ALEKS courses are very complete in their
topic coverage and ALEKS avoids multiple-choice questions. A student who
shows a high level of mastery of an ALEKS course will be successful in
the actual course she is taking.
