ALEKS (Assessment and 学习 in Knowledge Spaces) is a Web-based, artificially intelligent assessment and learning system that uses adaptive questioning to quickly and accurately determine exactly what a student knows and doesn't know in a subject.
ALEKS PPL (Placement, 准备, and 学习) accurately measures a student's math readiness and repairs learning loss via web-based and self-paced skill building. An ALEKS PPL account is valid for one year and provides students 5 assessments (initial and 4 retakes) in an effort to improve their placement score (如果有必要的话). All five assessments must be completed within one year from the time the student registers for an ALEKS PPL account.
ALEKS PPL Math Assessment Parameters:
- Untimed - no time limit, average completion time 1 ½ - 2 hours.
