Last edition Elsevier The Bittinger Worktext Series recognizes that math hasn’t changed, but students—and the way they learn math—have. This latest edition continues the Bittinger tradition of objective-based, guided learning, while also integrating timely updates to the proven pedagogy. This edition has a greater emphasis on guided learning and helping students get the most out of all of the resources available, including new mobile learning resources, whether in a traditional lecture, hybrid, lab-based, or online course. The new edition supports students with quality applications and exercises, a new MyMathGuide workbook and video program, and an updated MyMathLab course that brings it all together!

- • NEW! Increased coverage of skill-building, conceptual, and applications exercises, as well as new assignable Guided-Solution exercises, Skill Checks, and Reading Checks.
- • NEW! Active Learning Figures, available for key concepts, foster conceptual understanding and are especially helpful for visual and tactile learners. Instructors can create media assignments with the figures.
- • NEW! Bittinger Video Program includes all new To-the-Point Objective Videos and Chapter Test Prep Videos. To-the-Point Objective Videos include new Interactive Your Turn Exercises, where students solve exercises and receive instant feedback on their work. The videos also can be used hand-in-hand with the new MyMathGuide workbook.
- • NEW! MyMathGuide: Notes, Practice, and Video Path is an objective-based workbook (available in MyMathLab) that provides guided, hands-on learning. It offers vocabulary, skill, and concept review –along with problem-solving practice, where students can fill-in the steps to guided solution problems. It can be used together with the To-the-Point Objective Video program–and students can fill-in steps as they watch the videos, listen to the instructor lecture, or read the textbook. It is a loose-leaf workbook with space to show work, write notes, and can serve as a good foundation for a hybrid or self-paced course notebook or lecture notes. MyMathGuide is incorporated into the Learning Path of the Ready to Go courses.
- • Accessibility Enhancements continue Pearson’s commitment to make products accessible to as many students as possible. This latest course release is compatible with the JAWS screen reader enabling print-disabled students to access and interact with numerous problems as noted by an icon within the assignment manager. The course also works with the ZoomText enlarger. Additionally, all videos include closed captioning.
- Marvin Bittinger taught math at the university level for more than thirty-eight years. Most of that time, he taught at Indiana University Purdue University Indianapolis where he is now professor emeritus of mathematics education. Professor Bittinger has authored textbooks on topics ranging from basic mathematics to algebra and trigonometry to applied calculus. He received his BA in mathematics from Manchester College and his PhD in mathematics education from Purdue University. Special honors include Distinguished Visiting Professor at the United States Air Force Academy and his election to the Manchester College Board of Trustees from 1992 to 1999. Professor Bittinger has also had the privilege of speaking at many mathematics conventions, most recently giving a lecture entitled "Baseball and Mathematics." His hobbies include hiking in Utah, baseball, golf, and bowling. In addition, he also has an interest in philosophy and theology, in particular, apologetics. Professor Bittinger currently lives in Carmel, Indiana with his wife Elaine. He has two sons and four granddaughters.
