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.

Priority was established to enhance the above mentioned courses in whichAT had interest and expertise. However, due to the broader knowledge of the AT employees(former CS students) they were able to also envision a farther reaching impact of this effort. Theproposal extended beyond the limited courses to include many courses related to those courses.For example
