It is designed as a low-stakes, low-stress way for students to brush up on their math skills and be better prepared for their math courses.
Accelerate Math will help you
You will be provided access for six weeks to ALEKS math software. ALEKS is web-based, self-paced, and diagnostic. It will identify your math strengths and weaknesses and design a plan for you to improve your weaknesses. This means that you do not have to spend time working on math concepts that you already know.
After working through the math software, you will schedule a proctored comprehensive assessment with a faculty member. If you complete the assessment with 85% or higher, you will earn placement credit, and the improvement in your math skills will give you the best opportunity to be successful in your next math class.
To help you navigate the program and the software, GTC has math faculty dedicated to Accelerate Math. These faculty will be glad to help you with the software and the math concepts, as well as any questions you might have as a GTC student.
Accelerate Math is available to access online, with instructors available to help by phone or email so you can complete the program remotely. Note: There will be a proctored final assessment administered on campus.
