In the day-to-day use of ALEKS by a class, a principal concern of the instructor is to monitor that students are using the system with the required regularity and for at least the minimum required amount of time. The most convenient place to find this information is the "Learning progress since latest assessment page" (under "Reporting"). Each student's name is displayed on this page with the total number of hours that student has spent logged on to the system. Students can see this same total in their own accounts by using the button "Report."

It is also important that critical assessments throughout the course be supervised by the instructor, to ensure that valid results are received (See Sec. 2).
