Description
Prealgebra, An Integrated Equations Approach, Second Edition, utilizes an integrated equations approach that pairs arithmetic concepts alongside corresponding algebraic concepts. In this way, students gradually build their confidence dealing with basic algebra concepts and are better prepared for an introductory algebra course.In Prealgebra, integers ,fractions, and decimals are used frequently after their initial introduction, developing students' comfort with them.Prealgebra is a part of The Streeter Series in Developmental Mathematics that is built on the idea that students learn mathematics by doing mathematics. With this, the authors encourage students to take a step, check their progress, and then build on the concepts learned. Key features of this text, "Check Yourself" exercises keep students active and involved throughout the book.Other emphases of the series include clear, user-friendly writing;; an accessible, uncluttered look that encourages learning; overcoming students' math anxiety; and the consistent use of dimensional analysis.
