No it just hurts my brain, my teacher give me mental brain damage and my brain cells feel like they overdosed from drinking too much coffee, and after i used aleks for a week i would sleep in my house and see shadow figures of demons in my room and i would have to throw empty water bottles at them. The creator also looks likes a old a$$ Adolf as a grandpa, and after i used aleks my sanity level went from 100 to -3 and i feel like my brain cells are running around my head like there is a fire going on and the knowledge check makes me want to aggressively drink 3ml of bleach. The only thing i learned from aleks is that if i want to go insane i just go onto their site

Calling this app cancer would be a complement and I can ´ t call it garbage or crap because that would also somehow manage to be a complement to this thing that even calling it the r word wouldn´t be enough to describe how much I dislike it if genital torture was a tool to teach math this is what it would be so don´t use it

Who ever made aleks literally wants me to kill myself. Seriously losing points that you already got and making you start over is a horrible idea. I seriously can't stand it. Why would they ever make something so stupid. It just gives me more anxiety and I can never get full points on my homework assignments because I am so freakin stupid and and there is no participation points. I hate math and I hate aleks, I am not learning anything and i am getting a freakin D in my class because we only use aleks. I might as well drop the class because this website is so freakin stupid. Thanks for making my life the worst it has ever been. You make me cry every single week and many other students as well.

I know that schools use this, but overall it's not very good for students to use. I understand, it has things that a school math app has but not only is it very boring, it's also very bland and doesn't teach education in a way kids would like. I feel that ALEKS should make this more appealing to kids (like how Dreambox, another learning math app for younger children) does it, where you can customize things and also get rewarded with little games to make it less boring. But nope, ALEKS makes it completely boring with
- Not rewarding you with anything.
- Being a bit more difficult.
- Making it a bit more stressful for kids who keep on getting answers wrong/incorrect.
- Just boring overall.
If a administrator/moderator sees this, I would like to see at least one of my suggestions implamanted.

ALEKS is a bad learning site. The interface for ALEKS is really ugly. The explanations are very vague and don't give good examples. The explanations don't explain a lot of things that they do. They write the explanation and expect you to know how to do the work. The knowledge checks are horrible. I finish a pie slice and I have to do a knowledge check. In the knowledge check, I loose topics and have to redo some topics I just did. And there is a lot of topics that are very similar to each other, each topic takes a very long time.

This software belongs in the absolute trash bin. It's too $#*!ing time consuming. I hate how this software takes off points if you get a problem wrong. It shouldn't do that at all. How the $#*! is this software supposed to be helpful for students, when it punishes mistakes. I have to use this god awful software for my college math class for this semester. When I get a problem wrong and it takes points off, I honestly want to pull my $#*!ing hair out or bang my head against a wall. The knowledge checks GARBAGE! Teachers, professors, or educators who use this $#*!ty software need a $#*!ing reality check. You are making students stressed, overwhelmed, and ashamed to do math in general. $#*! this software!

My son always has to do 3 topics every day because of his teacher. My son is not mentally dumb or anything. The problem is that the teacher teaches a topic a certain way or a different way, then when she assigns the Alex topics, the ways to solve the problem is different. Before, I thought it was alright if the solutions were different, but it turns out Alexs only accepts their way on doing the problem. So now my child and probably many other children are confused in math because of how irrelevant Ales is.

First of all, the explanations are irrelevant to the topic, mostly all of the explanations aren't the same as the problems you are given. The only good thing about this devil is that there's only 3 question if you get them all right if not... you'll basically be stuck in a infinite loop of questions. As you see in the picture my progress went from 45% to 33%!. Well you might blame me for making my progress go down but still.

My school decided to give a certain group of advanced kids, including myself, this program to do 8th grade math over the summer so we can take pre-algebra in 8th grade and I hate. Some of my closest friends are in this group with me and are having an awful experience as well as myself. Personally it does not explain each topic in detail and it doesn't adjust to your ability/pace which I disliked as well. It just does not work for me.

Aleks, where to begin...

IT SUCKS! IT IS THE GREATER EVIL! 88% of students say that Aleks does not help them. Statistically speaking, Aleks is stupid. Aleks doesn't help kids learn, instead it causes kids to go into eternal depression. This issue stems from the core of Aleks, it's creator, is from the 1930's. He has not adapted to the times, so the program is still barbaric. Schools are changing, the way we learn is changing. This change is why Aleks can step out and leave the scene. Learning with Aleks does not work and instead causes major mental issues. A system like this cannot stand. That is why we need to get rid of it and move on.

Does a dog$#*! poor job at teaching as it often does not fully show you how to work through the problems. Its not user friendly and will sometimes say an answer is wrong even though it their answer is the exact same as yours. On top of it all it can take ridiculous long time to get through the homework.
