This site, ALEKS, appears to be a popular platform for teachers to automatically "teach" their students math skills. The issue is that whoever created this site likely does not understand math themselves. Kids have great growing minds, and the reason so many hate math is because teachers make them memorize instead of visualize. This site makes that even worse. It should include a diagram and some step-by-step procedure with thorough explanations to explain the diagrams. ALEKS appears to teach kids through its "explanation" feature, which seriously needs to be changed. There has been many cases where I have read the explanation but still don't understand the concept, and, of course, I see the yellow screen of terror on the next question because I have no idea how to solve it. Seeing that the site is popular, it is the responsibility for the developer to revise this to make a better learning experience for all who must go through this torture.
