Mastery of problems is based on a point system: one point added for a
correct answer, two points added for two correct in a row without using the
Explanation page, and one point subtracted for an incorrect answer. The
number of points cannot go below zero. ALEKS considers a topic learned
when a student earns a total of five points for that topic. The bars in
the progress indicator represent how many points you have earned for the
current topic (top right of the Learning Page). The progress bars change
color to show how the topic is going: green to show success, yellow,
orange, and red to indicate difficulty.
