In addition to video instruction, there are self-check questions and periodic assessments. As well, courses contain a number of Special Lessons  or “offline” assignments in which the student puts their learning into practice. Special Lessons are designed to build depth into the course with additional instruction in the way of at-home science labs, writing and composition, focused projects, and critical thinking activities. Acellus Cybrschool is parent and HST-managed for all instruction and grading. When the CybrSchool option is activated, HSTs have the ability to request live sessions with the student.

ALEKS

 

Grades 3-12

Assessment and Learning in Knowledge Spaces (ALEKS) is a web-based, artificially intelligent assessment and learning system for mathematics courses. ALEKS uses adaptive questioning to determine exactly what a student knows and does not know in a course, then instructs the student on the topics he or 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. Courses are very complete in their topic coverage and avoid multiple-choice questions. ALEKS math is parent and HST-managed. Content is auto-graded, but worksheets for enrichment and supplemental learning should be assigned.
