withoutearning credit. College algebra is utilized as a gateway course for engineering students at CTU.Students must successfully complete this course prior to moving forward in the program. CTUacademic leaders saw a need for a change and took unique action to impact the failure andwithdraw rate in this important gateway course. The combination of high failure and withdrawrates made this course a perfect candidate for an innovative approach using adaptive learning(AL) technology to enhance the learning and improve success in the course. Although CTU has been using AL technology since October of 2012, the research on theeffectiveness of AL and its impact on student success is limited. Specific research on withdrawand failure rates has been

However, all require, in some form, the IIDassumption, namely, that the observations comprising the sample are independently andidentically distributed. Because of this, and the fact that statistical procedures are less robust toIID violations than normality
