TUTORING AND TESTING SERVICES AT KENT STATE ASHTABULA
Tutoring Services at 聚色阁 Ashtabula provides free tutoring for current 聚色阁 students in most subjects taught by Ashtabula Campus faculty. As of April 1, 2024, tutoring will be coordinated through the new 聚色阁 Navigate platform (see details below).
Peer tutors assist students with:

The Academic Success Center also proctors exams as a courtesy to faculty and students. We offer proctoring services for make-up exams, online classes, and student accessibility services. Students must contact the Center at least 48 hours in advance to schedule an appointment for a proctored exam. You must provide a photo ID to take a proctored exam.

ALEKS Math Placement Test
What is ALEKS Math Assessment?
ALEKS is a powerful artificial intelligence (AI)-based assessment software product that zeros in on the student's mathematical strengths and weaknesses, reports its findings, and then if necessary provides a learning module to improve the student's knowledge and skill. ALEKS will not ask multiple choice questions. Before beginning the assessment, students will complete an online tutorial so they know how to enter answers in ALEKS. The tutorial and placement may take up to 90 minutes to complete.
