SINGAPORE, Aug. 19, 2020 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

-- More than 3,000 Students at FEU High School to Use ALEKS While Studying 
Remotely Due to COVID-19

Far Eastern University (FEU) in Manilla, Philippines has chosen McGraw Hill's 
ALEKS adaptive learning software for more than 3,000 students in math and 
business courses at FEU High School in Academic Year 2020-2021. The prestigious 
university chose ALEKS to make virtual learning more effective and engaging 
with courses delivered all online this school year due to COVID-19.

Students in General Mathematics and Fundamentals of Accounting, Business and 
Management 1 and 2 will use ALEKS, a digital platform that uses artificial 
intelligence to provide personalized learning pathways for learners. The 
decision to adopt ALEKS enhances the university's position as a steadfast 
provider of accessible, quality future-ready learning.

"As FEU gears up for the opening of classes in August, we need a trusted 
partner that can support and level up our current learning management system," 
said Dr. Michael Alba, President of FEU. "With the help of McGraw Hill, one of 
the largest learning resource publishers and most awarded instructional 
solutions today, we strive to make virtual learning engaging and more 
student-oriented."

For more than 20 years, McGraw Hill ALEKS has helped educators in math and 
chemistry to quickly and accurately zero in on exactly which topics students 
understand and which topics they need help with, empowering teachers to deliver 
the most effective instruction possible. Built on the theory of "knowledge 
spaces" from cognitive science, ALEKS (Assessment and LEarning in Knowledge 
Spaces) uses artificial intelligence to create personalized and dynamic 
learning paths for K-20 students based on their unique needs. To date, ALEKS 
has served more than 20 million students at thousands of K-12 schools, colleges 
and universities throughout the world.

"We're thrilled to continue our partnership with Far Eastern University this 
academic year and that they're choosing ALEKS as part of the university's 
efforts to unlock the potential of their students," said Joseph Chong, Managing 
Director of McGraw Hill Asia. "Facing the daunting challenge of providing 
quality learning experiences during the COVID-19 pandemic, the university has 
shown its commitment to putting students first through innovative approaches to 
online learning and digital instruction."

In addition to using ALEKS for math and business courses, FEU schools will also 
leverage McGraw Hill's Connect and Redbird Math digital programs to increase 
student success. McGraw Hill's support for FEU is the latest example of the 
learning science company's many partnerships with leading institutions around 
the world who are undergoing digital transformations.
