Review:
"This workbook is the best supplemental text in methods that I have ever used. It is readable; it is "student-friendly"; and it is substantively rich."
"I like the fact that the program is so user friendly and I don't have to spend hours teaching them how to use it. I also like that the exercises are clearly linked to the chapters."
"I like the workbook very much. The students give it rave reviews."
