The First Canadian Edition of BASIC COLLEGE MATHEMATICS engages students through real-world, Canadian examples and problems, while maintaining and building on the pedagogical strengths of the Aufmann series. Practice is a key to success in developmental mathematics and each feature within this title focuses on student mastery of concepts. All lessons, exercise sets, problems, and supplements are organized around a carefully constructed hierarchy of objectives; each exercise mirrors a preceding objective, which helps to reinforce key concepts and promote skill building. In addition to Canadian and international word problems and examples, this edition makes math skills more relevant to Canadian students through a chapter on the metric system and supports the unique blend of the metric system and Imperial System used in Canada.
