Description
This package contains the Access Kit for the Squires/Wyrick MyMathLab eCourse plus the MyMathLab Notebook.
John Squires and Karen Wyrick have used their successes in the classroom and the lab to design the MyMathLab for Basic Mathematics eCourse. This new MyMathLab eCourse offers students a guided learning path through content that has been organized into smaller, more manageable portions. This course structure includes pre-made tutorials and assessments for every topic in the course, giving instructors an eCourse that can be easily set up and customized for a variety of learning environments.
The MyMathLab Notebook accompanies the Squires and Wyrick eCourse and shows key examples from the step-by-step videos along with extra space for students to take notes. It also offers additional helpful hints and practice exercises for every topic in the eCourse. The notebook is three-hole-punched so that students can insert it into their course binder and add additional notes, solutions for their homework exercises, and additional practice work as needed.
