About the Project

The product is a web-based, artificially intelligent assessment and learning system. It uses adaptive questioning to quickly and accurately determine what a student knows or doesn’t know in a course.

Ground-breaking technology was developed by a team of software engineers, mathematicians, and cognitive scientists with the support of a multi-million-dollar grant from the National Science Foundation.

The system instructs the student on the topics he/she is most ready to learn. As a student works through a course, the system periodically reassesses the student to ensure that the issues learned are also retained. The learning courses are very complete in their topic coverage and avoid multiple-choice questions. A student who shows a high level of mastery of a system will be successful in the actual course he/she is taking.

The process is predictable and well-planned. SCRUM is used as a methodology.
