Creating a corequisite course can feel overwhelming, but with the right tools, you can build a learning experience that’s both structured and customizable, giving each learner the support they need without adding to your workload or taking away from valuable class time. 

That’s where Hawkes Learning shines. Built on a mastery-based framework, we combine diagnostics, personalized practice, and robust reporting to help instructors deliver equitable, effective learning experiences to each student. Hawkes uses data-driven diagnostics to individualize learning paths and provide targeted support to make learning more efficient. 

Here’s how:

A Focus on Integrated Review & Prerequisite Skills

Hawkes’ Integrated Review products organize prerequisite skill-building into structured review chapters that precede core Math and English content, giving students just-in-time access to foundational concepts before moving into the primary curriculum.

With just-in-time remediation built directly into the learning experience, instructors can support skill development without adding extra materials, redesigning their syllabus, or slowing the pace of the course.

 

Smarter Diagnostics for a Stronger Start

“The diagnostic abilities of Hawkes are a game changer.”

– Carrye Wilkins, Associate Director of the REACH Learning Center at the University of Louisville

Every student brings a different level of foundational knowledge to class. Hawkes’ diagnostics help you identify and then bridge skill gaps by individualizing instruction.

Make Remediation more Efficient

With diagnostics, students can quickly place out of topics they already have mastered, allowing them to focus on the topics that need extra attention, making every study session more effective.

Pre-created and Customizable

Ready-to-use diagnostic tests give you a quick, accurate read on student readiness with the ability to edit, remove, or add questions to fit your unique course goals or standards.

Insights at Multiple Levels

Diagnostics are available at the course, chapter, and lesson levels, so you can gauge understanding across broad concepts or drill into specific skills.

Shining a Spotlight on Efficiency

One of the key pillars of Hawkes’ mastery approach is efficiency, helping students make the most of every learning moment.

Instead of practicing without purpose or having to “re-prove” their understanding, these flexible pathways allow them to focus their time on intentional learning and meaningful progress.

Data That Drives Instruction

So, you’ve individualized each student’s to-do list with the diagnostics tool—now what? Hawkes’ real-time reporting and analytics transform diagnostic results, time-on-task data, and performance trends into actionable insights, helping students stay on track, build confidence, and progress at their own pace.

With Hawkes, you can:

  • Monitor trends – Track individual and course-wide performance over time to spot early warning signs.
