Features + Benefits
Encourage Guided Inquiry

In-Class Activities, at the end of each chapter, are given to reinforce the material in each chapter. In-Class Activities stimulate active conversation within pairs and groups of students working through the material. The focus is generally kept on student effort, and forces them to keep working the problem until they arrive at the right answer. This provides them with a set of worked out problems, using their own logic, before they are asked to tackle more difficult problems.

Reinforce and Expand on the Activities

There are several checkpoints for students to see if they understand the material. By providing these types of practice, students are encouraged to reflect on their understanding in preparing for class, during class, and at the end of each chapter and unit as they prepare to transfer their knowledge to other areas. Checkpoints include:

Comprehension Checks, within the reading, are with answers provided in the back of the book. The motivation for including Comprehension Checks within the text rather than include them as end of section questions is to maintain the active spirit of the classroom within the reading, allowing the students to self-evaluate their understanding of the material in preparation for class—to enable students to be self-directed learners, we must encourage them to self-evaluate regularly.

Review Sections, at the end of each of the five parts of the text, provide additional questions, often combining skills within the part to help students climb to the next level of understanding.

Umbrella Projects, allow students to apply skills that they have mastered to larger-scope problems. These problems have been found extremely helpful in providing context for the skills that students learn throughout the unit.
NEW! Online Appendix Materials: Umbrella Projects have all been moved online to allow for easier customizing of the project for each class.
