Giving Students Access to Subjects

Students gain access to Albert question banks by joining classes with work assigned or shared, either by assignments, Independent Practice, or Adaptive Practice. The class must belong to an approved teacher at a school with an active license.*

Example:

  • A licensed teacher creates a class. The teacher then assigns questions from Algebra 1. All students who join that class will have access to the assigned questions.

  • If the same teacher wants their students to also access SAT® or ACT® Math questions, the teacher will need to either create an assignment or open the subject for Independent Practice. The students enrolled in that class will then gain access to the additional subjects.

  • The teacher can also share adaptive skills with students from any of our Adaptive Subjects.

An Albert school license gives schools and teachers access to all subjects on Albert. However, in order to prevent cheating, students can only access questions in a subject once a teacher gives them access.

*Note: Teachers who are not approved at a school will not have access to Question Banks. However, they can still access Adaptive Subjects and share adaptive skills with students. Students who have been enrolled in a rejected teacher's class do not count towards your licensed seat quota.

Impact on License Usage

  • A school's seat count is calculated based on the number of unique students enrolled in classes created by approved teachers at the school, regardless of how many subjects each student uses or the number of classes they are enrolled in. A student counts as one seat no matter how many classes they join or how many subjects they use.

  • Students in classes created by unapproved or rejected teachers do not count toward license usage. These teachers can still use Adaptive Subjects and share adaptive skills with students, and their students will not occupy seats.
