Synopsis

For courses in Beginning and Intermediate Algebra that fully incorporate graphing calculators.

This text was written specifically to incorporate―throughout―all the AMATYC standards for intellectual development, content, and pedagogy. Experiencing Algebra combines beginning and intermediate algebra concepts and actively involves students in a “total algebra experience.” Thomasson and Pesut integrate the use of technology (assuming no prior graphing calculator skills on the part of students); allow students to experience algebra through discovery and visualization; illustrate multiple approaches (numerical, graphical, algebraic, and verbal) to problem solving; use real-world situations to help students connect algebra to other fields of mathematics as well as other disciplines; and ask students to communicate mathematically as well as work collaboratively in groups.
