Designed to help instructors answer the often-asked question, "When will I ever use this?" these activities ask students to read and interpret data from newspaper articles, the Internet, and other familiar, real sources. The activities are well suited to collaborative work and can also be completed by individuals or used for open-ended classroom discussions. Instructor teaching notes and extensions for the activities are provided in the Printed Test Bank and Instructor's Resource Guide.



Study Skills Workbook–A desk-light icon at key points in the text directs students to the Study Skills Workbook where they will learn how to use the textbook effectively, plan their homework, take notes, manage study time, and prepare for and take tests. They will find out how their brain learns and remembers, so they'll understand why the study skills activities will increase their success in this course.
