"Developmental mathematics course structures, trends, and dynamics continue to evolve and change, as course redesign trends continue to evolve and change, including the introduction of new pathways-type courses. Developmental mathematics instructors are increasingly challenged with helping their students navigate career-oriented math tracks (including non-STEM and STEM pathways), plus helping students think about selecting a major and work-force readiness. To help instructors on this front, with this revision of Basic College Mathematics, you'll find a new emphasis on, and integration of, Career Explorations throughout the text. Additionally, the program retains its hallmark characteristics that have always made the text so easy to learn and teach from, including its building-block organization. Each section is written to stand on its own, and every homework set is completely self-testing. Exercises are paired and graded and are of varying levels and types to ensure that all skills and concepts are covered. As a result, the text offers students an effective and proven learning program suitable for a variety of course formats-including lecture-based classes; computer-lab based or hybrid classes; discussion- oriented, activity-driven classes; modular and/or self-paced programs; and distance-learning, online programs"--
Throughout the text, the authors communicate to students the very points their instructors are likely to make during lecture, and this helps to reinforce the concepts and provide instruction that leads students to mastery and success.
