Publisher's Synopsis
This book addresses many topics that are important in students succeeding in mathematics. A major part of this book has been devoted to taking a proactive approach and eliminating the anxiety. Many publishers support their textbooks with numerous tutorials, and many tutorial services available. Not every tutorial is appropriate for every student, so a detailed analysis of the resources available has been added. Getting the right help is important. The wrong help may waste valuable time. Learning mathematics requires different study skills than most other subjects. This is addressed. In particular, breaking difficult problems into parts, understanding application problems, and using the technology available are included in this book. Transitioning to college and what changes are needed to succeed in college mathematics classes is a feature of this book. Whatever difficulties a student is having in mathematics, valuable help is here, within the pages of this book!
