I have personally liked everything about the platform. I can recommend reviewing the cost of the subscription to make it as an competetive option for students and more video content on some topics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have started using Knewton Alta about 4 years ago, shortly after I started teaching co-requisite courses. I was on a search for an adaptive learning system that could identify knowledge gaps and provide the missing background as the students were working on an assignment. Knewton Alta was the best thing for my needs; my students love it, and it is super easy and intuitive to use both for instructors and students. It provides ample information such as the time it took to complete an assignment, the last time and date the student was last active, the time and date an assignment was complete, and much more. These features are very helpful for conducting and teaching co-requisite courses in an online or hybrid format. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing! It's absolutely the best online platform out there, in my opinion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how students who understand the material can get through the homework quickly and students who need more practice get it. The fact the materials used are OER fits into the philosophy of my college. The overall cost to students is quite reasonable. And I love the integration of DESMOS with the homework and student instructional assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is not always as clear what needs to be taught for each section unless you manually review each homework section's instruction. The OpenStax book for Statistics is not very robust, but Alta gets around that by supplementing with more materials (that are still open source). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Alta is very easy to use for both the instructor and student. The objectives are clear and organized which makes creating assignments a breeze. The adaptive platform is especially appealing to my students. Gone are the days of every student getting the same assignment. Students get the right level and number of problems when they need it.

Most of the lower level classes at my school do not allow calculator use on exams. However, some problems in the alta assignment ask for approximations or use large numbers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't really say there's anything I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I love the adaptive homework assignments. It allows students who struggle on a specific topic to see similar questions until they grasp the topic. It also allows stronger students to complete their tasks quicker. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish there were more questions in the question bank for homework assignments. It can become repetitive. Sometimes when new questions are released into the system there are a handful of typos in them as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We are using Knewton for our co-requisite math courses. The homework really helps us to identify where our students need extra support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
