The Modules feature allows you to direct student learning in the adaptive path. With this feature, you can create custom Modules based on specific curriculum plans, such as textbooks, pacing guides, and syllabi. Completion dates or mastery levels may be assigned to custom Modules.

About Selecting Topics

When creating Modules, you'll be able to select topics from the entire ALEKS course. However, ALEKS will automatically include the prerequisite material required to learn each topic in an Module. Therefore, students who have not mastered prerequisite material required to learn a topic successfully will be required to learn this material before being able to complete the assigned Module.

Similarly, students who are ready to learn topics that are not part of the current Module will not see those topics until they reach the Module in which those topics have been placed.
