Then, we explain what will be done to solve the problem. Next, we explain why it will be done this way. Solution The steps that follow show how the problem is solved by using the given strategy. The answer is given at the end of the section, right before the Study Set. Substantial changes have been made to the worked example structure, the Study Sets, and the pedagogy.
They have difficulty translating the words, their meanings, and how they apply to problem solving. With these needs in mind and as educational research suggests , our fundamental goal is to have students read, write, think, and speak using the language of mathematics. Instructional approaches that include vocabulary, practice, and well-defined pedagogy, along with an emphasis on reasoning, modeling, communication, and technology skills have been blended to address this need.
The most common question that students ask as they watch their instructors solve problems and as they read the textbook is p Why? The new fourth edition addresses this question in a unique way. Students gain a deeper understanding of algebraic concepts if they know why a particular approach is taken. This instructional truth was the motivation for adding a Strategy and Why explanation to the solution of each worked example.
