A Spiral Approach to Financial Mathematics lays a foundation of intuitive analysis of financial concepts early in the course, followed by a more detailed and nuanced treatment in later chapters. It introduces major financial concepts through real situations, integrates active learning, student focused explorations and examples with Excel spreadsheets and straightforward financial calculations. It is organized so sections can be read independently or through in-class guided-discovery activities and/or interactive lectures. Focusing on conceptual understanding to maximize comprehension and retention, using modern financial analysis tools and utilizing active learning, the book offers a modern approach that eliminates tedious and time-consuming calculations initially without underestimating the ability of readers.

PRECALCULUS: A STUDY OF FUNCTIONS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS is an innovative precalculus text that incorporates multiple representations of functions, real world applications, the use of technology in the form of graphing calculators, and projects. Written in a conversational tone, it incorporates reading questions throughout the text to guide the students in their reading. Linear, exponential, logarithmic, periodic, and power functions are introduced early in the text allowing the rest of the text to be organized around mathematical concepts rather than types of functions. Drawing on their experience working on their National Science Foundation grant-funded PROJECTS FOR PRECALCULUS the authors incorporated input from many instructors who piloted the materials to create PRECALCULUS: A STUDY OF FUNCTIONS AND THEIR APPLICATIONS.

Introduction to Statistical Investigations, Binder Ready Version leads students to learn about the process of conducting statistical investigations from data collection, to exploring data, to statistical inference, to drawing appropriate conclusions. The text is designed for a one-semester introductory statistics course. It focuses on genuine research studies, active learning, and effective use of technology. Simulations and randomization tests introduce statistical inference, yielding a strong conceptual foundation that bridges students to theory-based inference approaches. Repetition allows students to see the logic and scope of inference. This implementation follows the GAISE recommendations endorsed by the American Statistical Association. This is an unbound, binder-ready version.

Intermediate Statistical Investigations&#8239;provides&#8239;a unified framework for explaining variation across study designs and variable types, helping students increase their statistical literacy and appreciate the indispensable role of statistics in scientific research.&#8239;Requiring only a single introductory statistics course as a prerequisite,&#8239;the program&#8239;uses&nbsp;the&#8239;immersive, simulation-based inference&#8239;approach&#8239;for which the&#8239;author team is known.Students engage with various aspects of data collection and&nbsp;analysis using real examples and clear explanations&nbsp;designed&#8239;to&#8239;strengthen&#8239;multivariable&#8239;understanding&nbsp;and&nbsp;reinforce first-course concepts.&nbsp; Each chapter contains in-depth exercises&#8239;which&#8239;follow a consistent&#8239;&nbsp;six-step&nbsp;statistical&nbsp;exploration and&nbsp;investigation method&nbsp;(ask a research question, design a study, explore the data, draw inferences, formulate conclusions, and look back and ahead)&nbsp;enabling students to assess a variety of concepts in a single assignment. Challenging questions&nbsp;based on&nbsp;research articles strengthen critical reading skills,&nbsp;fully&nbsp;worked&nbsp;examples&nbsp;demonstrate&#8239;essential&#8239;concepts and methods,&nbsp;and engaging visualizations illustrate key themes of explained variation. End-of-chapter investigations&nbsp;use&nbsp;real&nbsp;data&nbsp;from popular&nbsp;culture&#8239;and&nbsp;published research studies&#8239;in&#8239;a&nbsp;variety of disciplines,&nbsp;exposing&nbsp;students&nbsp;to various applications&nbsp;of statistics in the real world.&#8239;Throughout the text,&nbsp;user-friendly&#8239;Rossman Chance&#8239;web&nbsp;applets&nbsp;allow&nbsp;students to conduct&#8239;the&#8239;simulations and analyses covered in the book. &nbsp;
