Objective-level video clips have also been added to the MyMathLab course for every objective, with accompanying icons throughout the text.
Updated and expanded! The Video Workbook with the Math Coach helps students stay organized, follow along, and practice with the Guided Learning and Math Coach videos. It also provides additional practice, vocabulary, and skill reinforcement.
These video additions expand upon an already rich video lecture series that also includes Section Lecture Videos, Math Coach Videos, and Chapter Test Prep Videos.
NEW! Career Explorations have been integrated throughout the text and MyMathLab course in an interactive format that contextualizes the math to engage students and get them thinking about future career possibilities.
Career Exploration Problems foster active learning and better understanding of the math concepts, and are assignable in MyMathLab.
NEW! Use Math to Save Money Animations expand on a favorite feature from the text, allowing students to put the math they just learned into context. They are included in the MyMathLab course. Many also include assignable Use Math to Save Money Exercises in MyMathLab that instructors can assign to ensure students watched the animation and understood the concepts.
A variety of assignable exercise types are included in the MyMathLab course, and many pre-built homework assignments, quizzes, and tests have been set up for instructor convenience. Instructors will find:
Pre-made section-level homework assignments.
Updated! "How Am I Doing?" mid-chapter reviews have been moved from the text to MyMathLab and let students pause at critical junctures to make sure they are "getting it." Pre-made "How Am I Doing?" mid-chapter review homework assignments make it easy for instructors to assign these mid-chapter reviews. Plus there is also a pre-made end-of-chapter review homework.
A pre-made pre- and post-test for every chapter, and a pre-made chapter review quiz.
Expanded! Guided Questions break problems into multiple steps and guide students through solutions, helping them understand not only the steps involved, but the reasoning behind them. This exercise type is used in the Quick Quizzes and Math Coach questions.
Assignable Quick Quiz exercisesare available for every section. There are four Quick Quiz Exercises per section; the first three questions are skill-oriented, and the fourth question is a Concept Check that utilizes the Guided Question exercise typeto help ensure students understand the conceptual connections for the section.
Math Coach exercises are available for every chapter, and pre-built Math Coach Homework Assignments make it easy for instructors to assign the entire Math Coach feature to help students with the most difficult concepts in the chapter.
These are based on Math Coach problems in the text, which follow each Chapter Test, and provide students with a personal office-hour experience by walking them through some helpful hints to keep them from making common errors on test problems.
Math Coach Videos offer additional help by showing the authors working out the problems.
The Math Coach exercises in MyMathLab use the Guided Question exercise type, and feature the Math Coach Videos as learning aids. There are even more assignable Math Coach exercises with this edition!
Students can also use the accompanying Video Workbook with the Math Coach to follow along with the videos and for extra practice.
Use Math to Save Money Exercises are available to accompany many of the Use Math to Save Money animations in MyMathLab, to ensure students watch the animation and understood the concepts.
NEW! Learning Catalytics (TM) Integration: MyMathLab now includes Learning Catalytics, an interactive, student response tool that uses students' smartphones, tablets, or laptops to engage them in more sophisticated tasks and thinking. Now included with MyLab & Mastering with eText, Learning Catalytics enables you to generate classroom discussion, guide your lecture, and promote peer-to-peer learning with real-time analytics. Pearson-created content for developmental math allows instructors to take advantage of this exciting technology immediately.
NEW! The Student Success Module includes videos, activities, and post-tests for these three student success areas:
Math-Reading Connections, including topics such as Using Word Clues and Looking for Patterns.
Study Skills, including topics such as Time Management and Preparing for and Taking Exams.
College Success, including topics such as College Transition and Online Learning.
Instructors can assign these videos and/or activities as media assignments, along with pre-built post-tests to make sure students learn and understand how to improve their skills in these areas.
