Book Description
"This textbook is intended for a one semester college course in pre-algebra. By doing so, the text is also intended to help prepare students for success in their future algebra/mathematics courses. All topics and concepts in the workbook are presented and organized in a format that is easy for students to follow and convenient for instructors to use as a resource for lesson planning and problem selection. The text prepares the student for an end of semester pre-algebra exam through explanations and worked out examples followed by extensive exercises and worksheets. Answers are provided for all exercises. Problem sets intended for final exam review are included in the Appendix. Each section within a chapter has an exercise set and worksheet. In addition the textbook contains an access code to an online homework system. The online system has one or more problem sets for each section and one or more videos with demonstrations and explanations. Problem sets contain multiple choice questions that are automatically graded giving students immediate feedback. Instructors have the ability to set due dates for the problem sets within a section. Instructors can track an individual student's progress. The students typically use the system to practice what they learned in class. The videos help the students learn and reinforce techniques that they may not have fully understood in the classroom"--Page 4 of cover.
