BEGINNING AND INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA: CONNECTING CONCEPTS THROUGH
APPLICATIONS, shows students how to apply traditional mathematical
skills in real-world contexts. The emphasis on skill building and
applications engages students as they master algebraic concepts,
problem solving, and communication skills. Students develop sound
mathematical skills by learning how to solve problems generated
from realistic applications, instead of learning techniques without
conceptual understanding. Authors Mark Clark and Cynthia Anfinson
have developed several key ideas to make concepts real and vivid
for students. First, the authors place an emphasis on developing
strong algebra skills that support the applications, enhancing
student comprehension and developing their problem solving
abilities. Second, applications are integrated throughout, drawing
on realistic and numerically appropriate data to show students how
to apply math and to understand why they need to know it. These
applications require students to think critically and develop the
skills needed to explain and think about the meaning of their
answers. Third, important concepts are developed as students
progress through the course and overlapping elementary and
intermediate content in kept to a minimum. Chapter 8 sets the stage
for the intermediate material where students explore the "eyeball
best-fit" approach to modeling and understand the importance of
graphs and graphing including graphing by hand. Fourth, Mark and
Cynthia's approach prepares students for a range of courses
including college algebra and statistics. In short, BEGINNING AND
INTERMEDIATE ALGEBRA: CONNECTING CONCEPTS THROUGH APPLICATIONS
develops strong mathematical skills using an engaging,
application-driven and problem solving-focused approach to algebra.
