Description
This package contains the MyMathLab Access Kit and the Guided Notebook.
Beginning & Intermediate Algebra by Trigsted, Bodden, and Gallaher is the first online, completely "clickable" Beginning & Intermediate Algebra text to take full advantage of MyMathLab's features and benefits. Kirk Trigsted saw marked improvements in student learning when he started teaching with MyMathLab, but he noticed that most students started their assignments by going directly to the MyMathLab homework exercises without consulting their textbook. This inspired Kirk to write a true eText, built within MyMathLab, to create a dynamic, seamless learning experience that would better meet the needs and expectations of his students. Completely clickable and fully integrated-the Trigsted eText is designed for today's learners.
The Guided Notebook is an interactive workbook that guides students through the course by asking them to write down key definitions and work through important examples for each section of the eText. This resource is available in a three-hole-punched, unbound format to provide the foundation for a personalized course notebook. Students can integrate their class notes and homework notes within the appropriate section of the Guided Notebook. Instructors can customize the Guided Notebook files found within MyMathLab.
KEY TOPICS: Review; Real Numbers and Algebraic Expressions; Linear Equations and Inequalities in One Variable; Graphs of Linear Equations and Inequalities in Two Variables; Systems of Linear Equations and Inequalities; Exponents and Polynomials; Factoring Polynomials; Rational Expressions and Equations; Introduction to Functions; Radicals and Rational Exponents; Quadratic Equations and Functions; Circles; Exponential and Logarithmic Functions and Equations; Conic Sections; Sequences and Series
MARKET: For all readers interested in beginning and intermediate algebra.
