Student Hotlists




The AELC will not be running classes this summer, but this cartoon explains to students how to use the Student Hotlists in the right column of this Blog to find approved academic Websites to study until classes resume in the fall.

GED Math website

'There is a good website for GED math students. It has very good visual aids. It is http://www.gedmathgraphics.net/ Check it out!' (posted by Kristy on the AELC Blog).

Since the above post, several other AELC instructors have tried this site with students, and they like the visual aspect of the site. Kudos to Howard Myers for recognizing and filling a need, and I'll update this post as more comments come in. Currently, a student is also trying out the Spanish version, and he'll comment when he is done. This is an excellent tool for students who are having problems with the math portion of the test, and works well for those who tested in the 3-8th grade level for math.
