Experiencing math in context

Interactive Developmental Mathematics, 2nd Edition brings the Rockswold/Krieger approach of "math in context" into an interactive digital experience made for the way students learn. The authors believe that developing a mathematical concept in a tangible, applied context before explaining the abstract theory behind it enables students to make math part of their own experiences in the world and thus, better understand it. In  Interactive Developmental Mathematics, this conceptual approach is delivered through Interactive Assignments, which provide bite-sized pieces of instruction for students with just-in-time trackable assessment.
