ALEKS是一个在线评估程序，旨在根据学生当前的数学技能将他们安排在数学课程中. It also provides personalized instruction to help improve upon current math skills. ALEKS程序包括:
分班评估的目的是准确衡量你目前的数学知识状况，以确定你将在数学课程中取得最大成功.
重要的是，你要认真对待分班评估，并付出诚实的努力，这样分班评估才能真正反映你目前的知识水平和数学准备. 在分班评估中作弊或不尽最大努力是没有好处的，因为这可能会导致你选的数学课程太难或不够有挑战性. Taking the wrong math course can cost you both time and money, can negatively impact your permanent academic record, 并且可能会影响你的经济援助资格. Therefore, 同时参加升学评估, please do not consult any outside sources for help such as friends/family, internet searches, textbooks, notes etc.
Respondus LockDown Browser for ALEKS is required to take the Placement Assessment. This browser is installed and ready to use on campus computers in the 学生辅导和计算机实验室, in the Library, and at the Van G. 米勒成人学习中心 你可以在哪里参加评估. 或者您可以按照下面提供的说明在计算机上安装用于ALEKS的Respondus锁定浏览器.

ALEKS将从一个简短的教程开始，以确保您在分班评估开始之前熟悉数学调色板工具. The tutorial shows you how to enter different types of answers, 怎样使用ALEKS计算器, and how to graph.
如果您不确定如何输入答案, or need help while you are taking the ALEKS Placement Assessment, select the Help button below the answer pallet tools.
在分班评估期间参加教程不会影响你的分班评估结果.
Simply close the browser, or log out and log back in. ALEKS will resume the Placement Assessment exactly where you left off, 不丢失之前的答案.
分班评估是适应性的，涵盖了广泛的数学主题，包括:
- Real numbers: Fractions, integers, and percentages
- 方程和不等式:线性方程, linear inequalities, 线性方程组, and quadratic equations
- 线性和二次函数:图形和函数，线性函数和抛物线
- 指数和多项式:整数指数, polynomial arithmetic, factoring, and polynomial equations
- Rational expressions: Rational equations and rational functions
- Radical expressions: Higher roots and rational exponents
- Exponentials and logarithms: Function compositions and inverse functions, properties of logarithms, 还有对数方程
- 几何与三角:周长, area, and volume, coordinate geometry, trigonometric functions, 恒等式和方程
ALEKS is not a multiple-choice Placement Assessment. It is open-response and requires you to work out solutions with a paper and pencil, 然后把它们输入ALEKS.
You may only use a pen or pencil, paper, and the resources provided within ALEKS. ALEKS将提供一个屏幕上的计算器，如果你需要一个来完成一个特定的问题.
你不应该接受朋友的帮助, family, other websites, textbooks, 或任何其他非ALEKS提供的资源. 使用外部资源将导致不适当的安置和潜在的课程失败.
参加分班评估时，请务必随身携带钢笔或铅笔和纸.
Because ALEKS is adaptive, once you submit an answer, you cannot change it. Be sure to carefully check your answer before submitting your response.
It is likely that you will be asked questions on material you have not yet learned. On such questions it is appropriate to answer, I don't know. 然而，对于任何你熟悉的问题，尽你最大的努力是很重要的. I don't know被ALEKS解释为你不知道如何解决这个话题, and this will be reflected in the Placement Assessment results. 在分班评估中错误回答问题不会被扣分, it only helps ALEKS understand what you know and don’t know.
You will have access to your Placement Assessment for three hours.
Take your time and complete the Placement Assessment at your own pace.
If you need to exit the Placement Assessment for any reason, you will be able to log back in and pick up where you left off, but you must complete the Placement Assessment within three hours.
是的，你最多可以重新参加四次分班评估来提高你的分数. The highest score will be used for math placement.
You must wait 48 hours between Placement Assessments.
三个小时的工作 Prep and Learning Module is required before each Placement Assessment attempt. 如果你只是重新参加分班评估，而没有花时间在准备和学习模块上复习你可能忘记的材料，你的分数不会提高.
Where can I see my score?
- 完成分班评估后，您将立即收到成绩.
- 你的分数将在ALEKS中显示.
- 您的成绩将自动添加到您的学生档案中，您的学术/大学成功顾问可以访问您的学生档案.
你的分班成绩有效期为24个月，并将在你的数学课程开始前由数学系核实.
You must achieve the minimum placement result to take the corresponding class.

准备和学习模块是一个个性化的学习计划，是根据你在初始安置评估中的表现而制定的. ALEKS will identify what you know and what you are ready to learn next.
准备和学习模块将帮助你复习丢失的知识，以提高你的分班评估分数，或者如果你被安排到你想要的班级，帮助你在课堂上取得更好的成绩.
在准备和学习模块工作期间, 您将定期完成知识检查，以确保您掌握了在学习模式中获得的主题. If you do not show mastery during the Knowledge Check, the topics will be added back into your Learning Pie so you can review them again.
不，在亚历克斯预科和学习模块中取得的进展不计入课程安排. You must complete a new Placement Assessment to change your placement score.
开始一个新的安置评估, select the placement tab in the upper right corner of the ALEKS page.
No, you cannot change to a different Prep and Learning Module. 你只能使用一个准备和学习模块.
