ALEKS®
ALEKS® (Assessment and LEarning in Knowledge Spaces) is an artificial intelligence-based system for individualized math learning, available over the World Wide Web. ALEKS® delivers precise, qualitative diagnostic assessments of students' math knowledge, guides them in the selection of appropriate new study material, and records their progress toward mastery of curricular goals in a robust classroom management system.

By sophisticated modeling of a student's "knowledge state" for a given subject matter, ALEKS® can focus clearly on what the student is most ready to learn next, building a learning momentum that fuels success.
