About the Book

KEY BENEFIT Math Lit, by Kathleen Almy and Heather Foes, offers an accelerated pathway through developmental math. Through its emphasis on contextual problem solving, the Almy/Foes text and its accompanying MyMathLab(R) course help readers gain the mathematical maturity necessary to be successful in a college-level non-STEM math class. Readers work through carefully designed explorations, activities, and instruction to garner a greater conceptual understanding of the major themes of numeracy, proportional reasoning, algebraic reasoning, and functions. Enhancements in the Second Edition have increased the versatility and ease of use.
