A.I.M., The Aufmann Interactive Method, an innovative, integrated approach to mathematics teaching and learning was designed by Dick Aufmann to maximize instructor and student success. Since his first edition, thousands of students have succeeded with Aufmann. What are the two keys to Aufmann's unmatched success?
1. COMPLETE AUTHOR COMMITMENT: Dick Aufmann is unique in that he writes not only his text, but ALL of his ancillary support materials -- whether it's a Computer Tutor, a Solutions Manual or Internet projects! He is the only college mathematics author today who can claim "complete authorship". This makes the Aufmann Series a tighter, more effective college algebra package than any other available.
2. THE INTERACTIVE APPROACH: After each concept is thoroughly explained in the text, paired examples demonstrate its use. A worked-out annotated solution to each example shows students how to approach the problem -- students are then encouraged to try a suggested exercise which gives them the chance to apply the concepts they've learned.
Full solutions to these suggested exercises, not just an answer, appear in the text's answer section in the back of the text -- enabling students to get immediate feedback.
