Synopsis

Reflecting NCTM and AMATYC standards, this reform algebra text presents elementary topics in the context of problem solving and concept development. Focusing on data, equations, and graphing, students work in small groups to investigate eight core mathematical problems, adding skills to their mathematical "tools kits" through active learning. Emphasizing hands-on understanding over routine drill, the authors incorporate the use of physical objects for developing mathematical models and structures. When appropriate, scientific calculators are integrated.
