Actually Gary, I was thinking InstantCert 2.0 should be a little like ALEKS features wise. If you think about it, it shouldn't be all that difficult to implement, and I'm not talking about an AI engine, but things like automatic progress tracking and re-assessment as well ordered concepts by learning objectives dependency (not that the sequence of the current flashcards are that bad, but could probably do with some re-ordering).
What I find the nicest about ALEKS is that it really takes away the pain of tracking progress and the fear of forgetting concepts, everything is clearly laid out. Nevertheless, I think many would prefer more information/explanations when learning concepts or maybe at least supplement ALEKS with a book/textbook/internet searching.
It's a pity I didn't find ALEKS earlier, I can imagine it would have been useful with Accounting (haven't tried those modules though).
