How can I leverage the power of ALEKS for Math?

Before adopting ALEKS, Professor Robert McKeown found it difficult, even impossible, to teach at a pace and level of difficulty that satisfied all of his students. Discover how ALEKS has given him the confidence that his students are engaging with the content, and improving their overall test and exam scores. 

Robert McKeown is an Assistant Professor, teaching in the Department of Economics at York University.

Bibliography
Elementary Statistics: A Brief Version was written as an aid in the beginning Statistics course for students whose mathematical background is limited to basic algebra. The book follows a non-theoretical approach without formal proofs, explaining concepts intuitively and supporting them with abundant examples. The applications span a broad range of topics including problems in business, sports, health, architecture, education, entertainment, political science, psychology, history, criminal justice, and many more. While a number of important changes have been made in this next edition, the learning system remains untouched and provides students with a useful framework in which to learn and apply concepts.
