ABOUT BOOK

This eTextbook or webbook is structured and split into lessons centered around a 50-minute lecture period. It has an attractive, interactive design that promotes evidence-based teaching practices such as scaffolded learning. Each lesson includes text content with detailed illustrations, application problems, a self-assessment quiz, and topics for further discussion inside or outside the classroom. In addition, hyperlinks to additional resources are provided to support students who might want to delve deeper into each topic. At the end of the webbook there are many more worked example and application problems for the student, which are mostly all former homework or exam questions. While many lessons will be covered entirely in the classroom by the instructor, in the interest of time, some lessons may be covered in less detail or other parts assigned for self-study.
