College Algebra: Graphs and Models

<p>This new review feature is designed to give each student the opportunity to be successful in this course by providing a quick review of topics from intermediate algebra that will be built upon in new college algebra topics. The review can be used in an individualized instruction format since some students will require more review than others. Treating the review in this manner will allow more time to cover the college algebra topics in the syllabus. <p>On the other hand, some instructors might choose to review some or all of the topics with the entire class at the beginning of the course or in a just-in-time format as each is needed. We think that instructors will appreciate the flexibility that the Just-in-Time feature offers. Additional resources in the MyMathLab course reflect the themes of just-in-time review and concept retention. For example, new Cumulative Review assignments allow students to synthesize and retain concepts learned throughout the course. <p>The Just-in-Time review topics within MyMathLab allow for assignable Getting Ready review quizzes that lead to personalized Getting Ready homework focused on areas in which students need additional practice. Our overarching goal is to provide students with a learning experience that will not only lead to success in this course, but also prepare them to be successful in the mathematics courses that they take in the future.</p>
