Knewton Alta Math & Statistics


Knewton Alta is accessible, affordable, and adaptive courseware that provides students with the support they need at the moment they need it. The Alta learning experience goes beyond homework—it pairs practice with personalized learning that offers detailed answer explanations, integrated just-in-time instruction, and remediation of pre-requisite skill gaps, all based on student performance.

All students start on the topic assigned by the instructor, and rather than relying on periodic diagnostics, the platform continuously monitors students’ performance and adapts in real-time to maximize their learning outcomes.

The data science behind the Alta technology is designed to ensure students can retain, recall, and apply knowledge in the future, and the gradebook gives instructors actionable data and insights into student performance and preparedness. The end result? Learning that lasts.

Nurture learning that lasts with hands-on interactives.

Knewton Alta provides an environment for your students that builds prerequisite skills and experience, making it easier to learn (and teach!). You control what your students see within each learning objective so that it's tailored to your syllabus.

Students complete integrated assessments and instruction at their own pace until they reach mastery on each objective, gradually strengthening their conceptual understanding. Hands-on exploratory learning is critical in mathematics. With Desmos graphing assessment questions embedded in the instruction, students can visualize and manipulate interactive elements for challenging topics to develop better conceptual understanding.

 

Here’s what makes Knewton Alta so powerful.

Adaptive technology is at the heart of a personalized learning experience for each student.

Detailed Answer Explanations

All of Knewton Alta's content — including instructional text and video, examples and assessment — is organized by learning objective, integrated within the adaptive experience, and served up at the precise moment a student needs it.
