Calculus hasn’t changed, but your students have. Many of today’s students have seen calculus before at the high school level. However, professors report nationwide that students come into their calculus courses with weak backgrounds in algebra and trigonometry, two areas of knowledge vital to the mastery of calculus. Thomas’ Calculus, Media Upgrade, Eleventh Edition responds to the needs of today’s students by developing their conceptual understanding while maintaining a rigor appropriate to the calculus course. For today’s student on the go, this portable version of Thomas' Calculus is three-hole punched so students can take only what they need to class, incorporate their own notes, and save money! Each Books à la Carte text arrives with a laminated study card, perfect for students to use when preparing for exams, plus access to MyMathLab. Thomas’ Calculus, Media Upgrade , Eleventh Edition is now available with an enhanced MyMathLab™ course–the ultimate homework, tutorial and study solution for today’s students. The enhanced MyMathLab course includes a rich and flexible set of course materials and features innovative Java™ Applets, Group Projects, and new MathXL® exercises. This text is also available with WebAssign® and WeBWorK®.

This text represents a new entry level course in mathematics for students in programs such as mathematics, the sciences and engineering, which require additional courses in mathematics. With enough material for a two semester course, the text is written at approximately the level of introductory calculus. Principles and Practice of Mathematics was developed over a four year period, under the direction of COMAP, with NSF support. It is an alternative point of entry into the undergraduate mathematics curriculum, one which presents for students a wide spectrum of the contemporary world of mathematics. By emphasizing the breadth and variety of modern mathematical inquiry and applications, the text provides a view of the subject that is not experienced by students in the traditional calculus course. The author team and advisors were selected for their experience with undergraduate education. Among our authors are several who have written successful textbooks. The entire project has evolved under the editorial supervision of veteran COMAP author, Walter Meyer, Adolph University.

Now with discrete mathematics, this edition makes it possible to organize an entire course without the use of calculus. However, if you wish to cover the chapters requiring calculus, the book's unique organization permits use to concurrently teach the introductory calculus course -- as early as the first semester of the freshman year. Plus, the book's rich choice of topics provide an introduction to the operations research and quantitative management science courses. This text gives students an opportunity to cover all phases of the mathematical modeling process, including creative and empirical model construction, model analysis, and model research using clearly defined techniques, such as modeling using graphs, modeling using proportionality, and modeling fitting.

A First Course in Mathematical Modeling

Fox, William P.

Brooks/Cole

Written by a team of nationally known mathematics educators and mathematicians who have experience in teaching at the public school and university levels, this book builds on the recommendations of NCTM's Principles and Standards. It provides guidance in teaching content and developing processes in readers from the middle school through high school. Its emphasis on mathematical modeling as an approach focuses on the development of the competencies needed to teach contemporary curricular materials in today's schools.

Offering a solid introduction to the entire modeling process, A FIRST COURSE IN MATHEMATICAL MODELING, 5th Edition delivers an excellent balance of theory and practice, and gives you relevant, hands-on experience developing and sharpening your modeling skills. Throughout, the book emphasizes key facets of modeling, including creative and empirical model construction, model analysis, and model research, and provides myriad opportunities for practice. The authors apply a proven six-step problem-solving process to enhance your problem-solving capabilities -- whatever your level. In addition, rather than simply emphasizing the calculation step, the authors first help you learn how to identify problems, construct or select models, and figure out what data needs to be collected. By involving you in the mathematical process as early as possible -- beginning with short projects -- this text facilitates your progressive development and confidence in mathematics and modeling.
