Built on research. Proven by results. Historically as publishers we have worked with you as professors to review and help us publish content to meet your course needs. Over the past few years we expanded our research to truly gather a better understanding of todays students. We listened we observed and we followed students to understand how they study how they take notes how they read and how they use the web. We also watched instructors prepare teach assess and evaluate their students. Students told us they want more visual and interactive appeal at a less expensive price. They also strive for new ways to be more efficient in their learning. Now with our newest M-series program LifeSmart: Exploring Human Development you have the opportunity to engage your students as you never have before. LifeSmarts adaptive diagnostic provides your students with the ability to assess what they know and dont know before their tests. Furthermore LifeSmart provides Milestones our new video and assessment program that helps bring the course material to life so your students can witness development as it unfolds. Our research gives students current and relevant applications to their lives in a new design layout that will grab your student's attention and make serious scholarship enjoyable to read.

Three components contribute to a theme sustained throughout the Coburn-Herdlick Series: that of laying a firm foundation building a solid framework and providing strong connections. In the Graphs and Models texts the authors combine their depth of experience with the conversational style and the wealth of applications that the Coburn-Herdlick texts have become known for. By combining a graphical approach to problem solving with algebraic methods students learn how to relate their mathematical knowledge to the outside world. The authors use technology to solve the more true-to life equations to engage more applications and to explore the more substantial questions involving graphical behavior. Benefiting from the feedback of hundreds of instructors and students across the country College Algebra: Graphs & Models emphasizes connections in order to improve the level of student engagement in mathematics and increase their chances of success in college algebra. The launch of the Coburn/Herdlick Graphs and Models series provides a significant leap forward in terms of online course management with McGraw-Hills new homework platform Connect Math Hosted by ALEKS Corp. Math instructors served as digital contributors to choose the problems that will be available authoring each algorithm and providing stepped out solutions that go into great detail and are focused on areas where students commonly make mistakes. From there the ALEKS Corporation reviewed each algorithm to ensure accuracy. A unifying theme throughout the entire process was the involvement of the authors. Through each step they provided feedback and guidance to the digital contributors to ensure that the content being developed digitally closely matched the textbook. The result is an online homework platform that provides superior content and feedback allowing students to effectively learn the material being taught.
