Overview
Aufmann/Lockwood's MATHEMATICS: JOURNEY FROM BASIC MATHEMATICS THROUGH INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA, 2nd Edition, and WebAssign, is organized by section with 22 modules spanning the developmental mathematics sequence.
Superior content within the digital platform of WebAssign enriches the teaching and learning experience. No matter your syllabus needs or course environment, you have everything needed to get started. Tailor your course with a range of assignment settings, the ability to add questions and content, analytics at the individual and course level and student/teacher communication tools.
Learning resources for students include the eTextbook, opportunities to practice skills and concepts with the Guided Workbook and AIM for Success Practice Sheets, videos with practice questions and WebAssign, designed to accommodate the student’s unique learning path.
- Smaller Learning Segments The authors chose to create smaller learning segments to help students master concepts. This breakdown of material also makes it easier for a professor to assign only those topics covered in the course syllabus.
- New Module on Trigonometry Sections on measurement of angles, right triangle trigonometry, the Law of Sines and the Law of Cosines are included. This material will be helpful for students entering the trades and going on to more advanced mathematics courses.
- Additional Objective Practice Exercises In response to reviewers’ requests, the authors have added more throughout the text. The Objective Practice now includes examples from all Focus exercises in the objective or new exercises to include a greater variety of the types of exercises presented in the objective. These new exercises contain both easier exercises and more challenging exercises than in the first edition.
- Apply the Concept or Applying the Concept These features, which now appear in every module, illustrate how concepts in the module are applied in real life. This will help the student understand why they are learning the material.
- Updated Applications of Concepts The Aufmann applied approach has been a hallmark of the Aufmann texts and it is an integral part of this solution. For example, Module 6 includes exercises on streaming services, podcast advertising, sales of eBooks and the alternative fuel and hybrid vehicle market. These applications increase student interest and motivation.
- Redesigned Function Tables The authors redesigned the function tables so that they are easier for the student to read and interpret.
- Solutions Section is Now Organized by Objective The solutions to Check your Understanding exercises for an objective are followed by the solutions for Objective Practice for that objective. This follows the organization of the text and the sequence in which students work through the exercises. Not only are complete solutions to exercises provided in the eTextbook, the steps to the solutions are annotated and often color-coded to help students to understand how each step of the solution is derived.
- Learn It Modules Narratives, videos and tutorials, all in one place, help students practice the prerequisite mathematics concepts they need to be successful in their course.
- Pre-Built Course Packs For instructors who want a pre-built course, we offer Course Packs that provide an intuitive, easy-to-use starting point from which you can build the course you need.
- Scaffolded Course Packs With a scaffolded approach, and the design principle of intentional design, these adapt a storytelling technique and 4-step framework to mimic the flow of a lecture. A concept is introduced, then developed with complex questions for conceptual understanding, while offering supportive tools. Students are then asked to work through applications while help supports taper off. This self-contained, guided learning experience enables students to build their skills in intentional, structured ways through a lessening of guidance, support and a subtle increase in complexity.
- Concept Checks Provide students with short, multi-step videos requiring answers to a question after each video to help confirm their understanding of math concepts.
- Responsive Questions Personalize the learning experience for students by asking them to use their own real data, which provides the variables they will use to answer each question part.
- Aufmann Interactive Method (AIM) Encourage students to be active participants in the learning process. Module A, “AIM for Success,” outlines the study skills used by students who have been successful in developmental mathematics courses. By making Module A the first module of the program, we have set the stage for a successful beginning to the student’s journey.
- AIM for Success Practice Sheets Practice sheets are available automatically with digital access and can be found in the resource tab with the Guided Workbook. They use AIM to guide students though 20 available modules of developmental math practice questions that can be printed out and completed as classwork, homework or extra practice.
