9780201785852: Mathematics in Action: Prealgebra Problem Solving

Synopsis

This prealgebra text, based on the AMATYC Crossroads standards, motivates college math students to develop mathematical literacy and a solid foundation for future study in mathematics and other disciplines. This first book of a three-book series presents mathematical concepts and skills through relevant activities derived from real-life situations. These activities are meaningful to students because they illustrate how mathematics arises naturally from real-world situations and problems. Mathematics in Action is based on the assumption that students learn mathematics best by doing mathematics in a meaningful context. Students take an active role in their own learning by working in groups, thereby developing communication skills, a sense of independence, and a “can-do” attitude about mathematics. Appropriate technology is integrated throughout the book so that students learn to interpret real-life data numerically, symbolically, and graphically. Regardless of their level of preparation for the course, students can use this text to increase their knowledge of mathematics, their problem-solving skills, and their overall confidence in their ability to learn.

Students are encouraged to view the material as an interrelated collection of arithmetic, geometry, and fundamental algebra concepts and skills needed for future mathematics development. Each chapter is built upon real-world activities. Within each activity, mathematical objectives are noted, exposition of concepts and skills are highlighted, and several modeling examples are included. Following each activity, there is a summary box featuring the important concepts and skills arising out of the activity.
