Description

BEGINNING ALGEBRA: CONNECTING CONCEPTS THROUGH APPLICATIONS presents mathematics as concepts in action rather than as a series of techniques to memorize. It is application-driven to engage students while they master algebraic concepts, critical thinking, and communication skills. The text encourages students to understand the mathematics--what it means in real-world contexts--while developing a solid foundation in algebra.教学资源：PPT、教师手册、题库、Instructor's Resource Binder。教学资源目前仅能提供给老师，获取方式如下： 1. 邮箱获取：将教辅需求发邮件至asia.infochina@cengage.com 2. 电话获取：010-83435111 3. 微信获取：关注我们的公众号，会由客服人员答疑解惑公众号名称：圣智教育服务中心微信号：Cengage_Learning 4.
