Aktiv Learning

Takes minutes for a single question to load and crashes easily.

Drag and drop dimensional analysis questions with 6+ parts should be a criminal offense, especially since the hints are horrible. Hint you got a ratio wrong. WOW thank you for letting me know that I have an unknown ratio that you wanted wrong. Even if you have the right answer in the end you still get marked as wrong. Oh almost forgot, the dimensional analysis questions never tell you what you got wrong, so your left guessing.

I cant even input my answer that i know, instead it wants me to navigate an entire problem by only CLICKING on different operations. To whomever coded in that feature, I hope your crops wither and this winter is harsh.

This platform used to be awesome but the last few homework assignments would bug out and crash the program every time I put in the right answer and now I'm getting the same thing just trying to open it. Which means I now have to hope the mobile app works and take my final exam on my phone....

I’ve used this app for the entire year and it has served me well for the most part. The one thing that really irks me though, is the fact that there isn’t an in-app notification system. I can’t count how many times I’ve completely forgotten about assignments that were due simply because all the notifications went to my email instead of my phone directly. I feel like this is an aspect of the app can be easily corrected, and I hope it does in the near future.

I have to have this app for a class that I am taking. Well the first assignment, extremely easy and simple math btw, and I can’t even understand how to submit answers and you get punished if you get it wrong. At least make your app user friendly. A simple guide on how to use it would help. It’s sickening that you have to pay for this and your grade depends on it but it’s impossible to use.

I’ll never understand why you MUST have a course code to even use the app or program. Waste of time but it seems pretty awesome if you can actually use it.

On the website, Aktiv doesn’t show the subscripts or superscripts for chemical equations. I have a Mac so I thought it would be fixed by now.

First off, this app works well consistently, which is a huge plus. It does everything it needs to do, and does it well. There’s only a few things I would want changed: You can view the periodic table from the questions in the app, but you can’t zoom in on it, so if you’re on a small screen it’s pretty much useless. You can’t sign up for Aktiv learning or join a class from the app or the mobile site (IIRC,) which is a pain if you don’t have a computer or don’t take it to class. I had to leave in the middle of class and go to a computer lab to sign up. On questions where you’re given an incomplete Lewis structure to finish, you can’t reset the question to the starting state, so if you get confused by messing around with it too much, it’s hard to get back on track.
