NEW - Enhanced Sample Assignments are pre-made section-level assignments that address key concepts within the section and help keep previously learned skills fresh with Retain Your Knowledge questions. They are assignable and editable. NEW - Setup & Solve Exercises require students to show how they set up a problem as well as the solution, better mirroring what is required of them on tests.
We have included both the "traditional" and Setup & Solve versions of exercise within MyLab to provide you with more options for assessing students. Concept and Vocabulary exercises are now assignable in MyLab Math as reading quizzes. Empower each learner: Each student learns at a different pace. Personalized learning pinpoints the precise areas where each student needs practice, giving all students the support they need - when and where they need it - to be successful. NEW - Integrated Review content and assessments help you provide students with just the remediation they need, when they need it. Integrated Review consists of: Skills Check Quizzes by chapter assess the prerequisite skills students need for that chapter. Personalized Skills Review Homework is generated for each student based on the results of the Skills Check Quiz to provide students with help on the prerequisite skills they are lacking. Students receive just the help they need-no more, no less.
Algebra Review eText, Exercises, Videos, and Worksheets are offered for students who need more help (or for co-requisite courses). There''s no need to go elsewhere for remediation. NEW - Personal Inventory Assessments are a collection of online exercises designed to promote self-reflection and engagement in students. These 33 assessments include topics such as a Stress Management Assessment, Diagnosing Poor Performance and Enhancing Motivation, and Time Management Assessment. NEW - Mindset material in MyLab Math encourages students to maintain a positive attitude about learning, value their own ability to grow, and view mistakes as learning opportunities - so often a major hurdle for math students. Deliver trusted content: You deserve teaching materials that meet your own high standards for your course. That''s why we partner with highly respected authors to develop interactive content and course-specific resources that you can trust - and that keep your students engaged. NEW - Interactive Figures (formerly Guided Visualizations) -- The suite of Interactive Figures has been expanded to support teaching and learning.
The figures (created in GeoGebra by author Michael Sullivan III) illustrate key concepts and allow manipulation. They have been designed to be used in lecture as well as by students independently. Author in Action Videos are actual classroom lectures with fully worked-out examples presented by Michael Sullivan III. Video assessment questions are available to assign in MyLab Math for key Author in Action videos. Improve student results: When you teach with MyLab, student performance often improves. That''s why instructors have chosen MyLab for over 15 years, touching the lives of over 50 million students. About the book Preparing for class Just-in-time review begins all sections to prepare students for the topics ahead: Preparing for This Section lists previously learned concepts that will be useful in the section ahead. Page references are included for easy review.
Are You Prepared? problems support the Preparing for This Section feature, allowing students to check that they are ready to proceed to the section ahead or if they need to turn back for further review. These problems appear at the start of each exercise set. Section-level guidance helps students master the material and develop their problem-solving skills: NEW - Need to Review? reminders now appear in the margin for key review topics, pointing students to the location of the review material in the textbook. Showcase Examples provide how-to instruction by offering a guided, step-by-step approach to solving a problem. Students can immediately see how each of the steps in a problem is employed. Model It examples are now highlighted, making it easy to identify which examples help students learn to build a mathematical model from verbal descriptions or from data. Model It exercises are included to assign for homework or practice. Now Work problems follow most examples and point to a related exercise for immediate reinforcement of the skill or concept.
Calculus icons appear next to information essential for the study of calculus. When the icon appears next to a definition, the notation used is consistent with that used in calculus. Practicing skills UPDATED - Guided Lecture Notes ask students to complete definitions, procedures, and examples based on the content of the Author in Action videos and text. By directing students into essential material, students can focus and retain the most important concepts. These notes help increase the success of your students in any course structure. NEW - Graphing Utility Screen Captures -- Desmos(tm) screen captures have been added in several instances along with the TI-84 Plus CE screen captures. These updated screen captures provide alternative ways of visualizing concepts and making connections between equations, data, and graphs in full color. NEW / REVISED - Chapter Projects give students an up-to-the-minute experience.
Many of the new projects require students to research information online in order to solve problems. Assess Your Understanding appears at the end of every section and contains a variety of problems for students to master the skills they need. Concepts and Vocabulary questions are fill-in-the-blank and true/false items that assess students'' understanding of key definitions and concepts. These have been written to serve as reading quizzes and are now assignable in MyLab Math. Mixed Practice problems offer comprehensive assessment of the skills learned in the section by asking questions that relate to more than one concept or objective. These problems may also require students to utilize skills learned in previous sections, helping them to see how concepts are tied together. Applications and Extensions allow students to apply their skills to real-world problems and to extend concepts learned in the section. These exercises have been updated and many new problems have been added.
NEW - Challenge Problems now appear in the Applications and Extensions part of the section exercises, for students seeking problems with greater rigor. NEW - Interactive Figure Exercises is a new category of exercises requiring students to manipulate an interactive figure to solve. Created by author Michael Sullivan III in GeoGebra, the interactive figures may be found at bit.ly/2MibgaO or in the Video and Resource Library of MyLab Math. These exercises are labeled with a special icon. Explaining Concepts: Discussion and Writing problems are marked by red numbers. These support class discussion, verbalization of mathematical ideas, and writing and research projects. REVISED - Expanded Retain Your Knowledge problems-While the focus of these problems remains the maintenance of students'' skills, in most sections problems preview skills students need to succeed in subsequent sections or in calculus.
