Summary

Prealgebra: Media Enhanced Edition, 3e by Baratto/Bergmanis the latest offering from authors Stefan Baratto and Barry Bergman. This media enhanced edition of Prealgebrafocuses on mastering math through practice with the integration of the ALEKS software. ALEKS helps to remediate students who may have a lack of prerequisite knowledge for the prealgebra course by way of an artificial intelligence engine. ALEKS provides students with a map (pictorial graph) of their progress to identify mathematical skills they have mastered and skills where remediation is required. Icons accompany exercises in the text where a similar problem is available in ALEKS.
