We know that math can be challenging and consistency is important. Research has shown that without intervention the average student will lose two months of math skills during summer vacation. S.O.L.E. helps to eliminate math anxiety, combat summer learning loss and boost interest in STEM fields.

S.O.L.E. is online math learning facilitated through ALEKS, a powerful math software that provides individualized learning and assessment correlated with Common Core standards. The program determines a students’ skill level through targeted instruction and continuous evaluation. It helps students improve their math skills whether they are starting with basic arithmetic or advanced calculus. ALEKS uses an artificial intelligence engine and adaptive questioning to determine precisely what a student knows and doesn’t know and help him or her master new skills.

May 18th and is on-going ($50)

The program launches on June 8, 2020 and concludes on September 4, 2020.

All a student needs is access to a computer, internet and a COMMITMENT to work their S.O.L.E. plan daily for at least 30-60 minutes per day.

Computers are available at Memphis Public libraries. Students can also complete S.O.L.E. modules on their tablets/ipads.

No worries! As long as a parent/guardian’s email is included in the registration, we are all set.

You can expect mastery (on average) of 2 mathematic skills for each hour of work. You can help your child by ensuring that he or she has regularly scheduled time to work on S.O.L.E. Memphis Challenge will update you weekly on your child’s performance. If your child commits to working on S.O.L.E. 30-60 minutes daily, five times a week, his or her math skills and confidence will grow!
