MathMax: The Bittinger System of Instruction offers a completely integrated package of four-color text, interactive tutorial software and videos that guide students successfully through developmental math.Key elements of the Mathmax system include learning objectives keyed to the exposition, exercises, and examples, a hallmark five-step problem-solving process, and modern, interesting applications and problems.
From the Back Cover
This text is designed to provide an interactive learning experience between the learner and the exposition, annotated examples, art, and the exercises you will find within. The first book on the market to introduce a "learn as you go" approach by including practice exercises in the margins of the text, this best seller uses real-data applications to help apply mathematics to your everyday life. Concepts and skills learned as you progress through the text are revisited again and again in the form of cumulative reviews, skill maintenance exercises, and synthesis exercises to help you retain what you have learned and see how it all relates together.
