Aleks claims to help explain and teach topics that aren't covered in class and catch everyone up, but that simply isn't true. The explanations given are weak and do not give the information you need to solve the problems like specific formulas. My school uses iPads, and the website formatting is not compatible. When you attempt to drag an item to indicate a value, such as assigning a value to a bar graph, either the entire website freezes and needs to be restarted, or the website doesn't acknowledge that you changing the graph rather than scrolling. In the end, I cannot submit these types of problems and have had to skip all problems with graphs for answers. My teacher has substituted regular homework for this, and I can't even answer questions because of how bad the web design is. It's not a matter of lazy students, but rather an awful teacher/explanation.
