How does ACT Connect work?
ACT Connect is a module based program. Each module is a set of five lectures per subject that focuses on specific ACT topics and applications. Lectures are approximately 40-60 minutes long.
The first module teaches students about Strategy and Content specific to the different ACT subject areas and how students can apply these strategies and content knowledge to the exam.
The second module hones in on Focused Simulation Test Review, meaning that each lecture in this specific module focuses on having students practice applying the strategy/content lectures from the first module to the ACT exam.
The third module is focused on Cumulative Simulation Test Review, meaning that students take a simulation ACT Test and apply the strategies and content knowledge they’ve acquired over the course of the collective modules.
