This tab lets you create individual worksheets for students in
the class, or view worksheets that have been created in the
past. Students also have the ability to print their own worksheets
(Sec. 5.2.11).
To create a worksheet for a single student, select a student from the
list.
Worksheet Options. Located to the right of the Manage
Worksheets screen is the "Worksheet Options" link. There are several
options available for worksheets in ALEKS (Fig. 6.34). Worksheets consist of 16 questions;
by default, these are drawn from the student's recent
learning history, but optionally four of the 16 may be chosen from
material that the student may be working on soon ("Ready to Learn
Questions"). Instructors can also manually select their own worksheet
combination by using the drop-down menus to specify the number of
"Review Questions" or "Ready to Learn Questions," to include in
the worksheet. If this option is chosen, worksheets must have at least
one question.
By default, the instructor always receives messages in ALEKS
with the answers to worksheets that students have generated
independently. This option can be turned off.
Other options are: to remind the students to print a worksheet at the
end of an ALEKS session; to let students see the answers to their
own worksheets; and always to "refresh" the worksheet content when
a new worksheet is printed (by default, it is refreshed only if the
student has done some work in Learning Mode).
