In summary, the conversation is about finding a competitor to the computer- or AI-assisted math learning program ALEKS. The person asking for recommendations has had a negative experience with ALEKS and is looking for alternatives. They specifically mention wanting a program that adapts to their progress and guides them to specific areas for study. They also request tips, suggestions, anecdotes, good jokes, and references to good software.

My Question relates to Commercial Computer- or AI-assisted Math learning programs

Can anyone recommend a competitor to ALEKS (which I used to use but gave up on when they revamped the lay out)
Besides which, I have reason to believe that ALEKS may not be best value in computer-assisted math learning.

Thanks for any tips, suggestions, anecdotes, good jokes and/or references to good software

Hey Michael, (Wave)

Can you elaborate please a bit on what you mean by "AI-assisted" here? Do you mean a program that adapts to how well you are doing and changes the difficulty? Something that keeps track of topics you perform better/worse on and adapts to that? Those kinds of things I assume right?

Yes, Jameson, that is precisely what I had in mind: I want to be "assessed" online, in an ongoing way, and guided into specific areas for focused study on the basis of this assessment, all in the one package (as is the stated goal of ALEKS (https://www.aleks.com/about_aleks)

Thanks kindly for your response,
Michael
