ACT Mastery Online, powered by Acrobatiq, is an online digital resource portal built for today's on-the-go student. Through predictive analytics and innovative adaptive learning software, the content reacts to student responses and adapts to their skill level in real time. Students "learn by doing" through a series of multimedia course material, content, and practices tests. The zero-prep teacher resource includes online monitoring of student and class progress through an extensive data analysis dashboard.

"The Appalachian GEAR UP partnership is leveling the playing field by providing quality test preparation to thousands of low-income, first-generation families who traditionally cannot access premium college readiness supports. This directly translates to more western North Carolina students preparing to win scholarships and gain entrance into four-year institutions." says Craig Gehring, founder and chief executive officer of MasteryPrep.

With ACT Mastery Online, students gain access to 70 self-paced modules in English, Math, Reading and Science, 1,000 ACT-style practice questions, extended practice drills, and one full-length practice test. The software and licenses are provided at no cost to students, families, districts, or schools.
