This highly effective text incorporates the benefits of technology and the philosophy of the reform movement into intermediate algebra. This approach provides an alternative to a conventional intermediate algebra course as a more effective bridge from developmental courses into precalculus. In keeping with the NCTM and AMATYC standards, the authors introduce the techniques of algebra in the context of simple applications.
This elementary algebra text presents explanations to promote conceptual understanding over the repeated application of algorithms. Understanding is stressed over computational skills and emphasis is placed on modelling, problem-solving, interpretation of graphs and the communication of mathematical ideas, under the auspices of the spiral approach. Discussion and mental exercise are included with the aim of encouraging students to forge their own links and connections.
