What is the ALEKS Learning Mode?
In the Learning Mode, you are able to practice and eventually master specific skills in a subject. If you successfully solve a series of problems of the same type, ALEKS will add this problem type, or “topic,” to your pie. If you experience difficulty with a topic, ALEKS will attempt to help you in several ways. You will receive examples of how to solve problems from that topic in ALEKS “Explain” pages; you are also provided with definitions of terms, a comprehensive mathematics dictionary, a “Help” option and immediate feedback on your answers. If you are not able to master a topic after repeated attempts, ALEKS will direct you back to your pie, where you can choose a different topic to work on. If you wish to change topics, you can click on the “MyPie” icon at the top of your ALEKS screen and choose another topic.
