This is BIG news! Don't forget to Google search yourselves a promo code, it would be rare to not be able to get at least $5 off your first month (that's 25% off). Now if we could just get the TESU TECEP Capstone back
RE: Big announcement - ALEKS got extended - eriehiker - 04-30-2018
Statistics for behavioral sciences is listed as upper level. Does it come into TESU as something different from STA-201?

That's great! If only they had more advanced math though....

Can someone tell me how aleks works? Is it subscription based or pay per course or mixture of both? how does the classes work?
RE: Big announcement - ALEKS got extended - eriehiker - 04-30-2018
Subscription. The initial assessment is like an untimed, high stakes test out. You can enter and leave as many times as you want.

Yes, it's subscription-based. For each course it starts off with an assessment to see how much of the prerequisite and course material you already know. From there it provides guided instruction to get you through any gaps in knowledge. Along the way it provides examples, exercises, and assessment tests to show your progress in mastering the material. Once you've achieved at least a 70% overall proficiency you can have ACE transcript the course for you.
I'm really happy to see it back since to me it is the best way to learn math. Particularly for people who struggle with math. I need to refresh my math anyway to prep for stats, so I'm considering taking Intermediate Algebra for an extra GenEd elective and maybe giving one of the stats courses another go.
