Jay Lehmann – författare

For a one-semester alternative to the traditional two-semester developmental algebra sequence that prepares students specifically for an Introductory Statistics course.

Looking for a new path in algebra?

Using authentic data to make math meaningful to students, Jay Lehmann’s A Pathway to Introductory Statistics provides a one-semester alternate path through developmental algebra to accelerate and prepare non-STEM students for introductory statistics. For many students’ majors, the most fitting college-level math course is statistics. Tailoring their developmental sequence–in both content and approach–to prepare students for this course of study can only improve their success. Infused with highly relevant data sets throughout, Lehmann presents students with both an introduction to descriptive statistics and the requisite algebra topics needed for a statistics course, while demonstrating the close link between the two subjects. This text equips students to reason statistically as they discover the skills and concepts they’ll need for statistics.

Modeling authentic data through curve-fitting gives students new meaning to the math

Seeking the answer to students’ perennial question “But what is this good for?” the Lehmann Algebra Series uses authentic, real-life data sets to find models and derive equations that fit the scenario. The curve-fitting approach teaches the mathematical concepts within the context of data, getting students engaged from the start and building conceptual understanding. 

Updates in this revision keep the data sets authentic and current, and provide even more resources for students to practice, review, and explore the concepts.

This manual contains the complete solutions to the odd-numbered exercises in the Homework sections of the text.

This new compelling resource for students correlates to the text and provides students with opportunities to dig into data and solve problems using pencil and paper. The workbook includes: Explorations that offer collaborative activities to support discovery of key concepts. Modeling exercises with authentic data that give students more practice on this multi-faceted concept, that can be sometimes hard to fully accomplish through MyLab™ Math. Projects that can be either open-ended or more guided, and ask students to dig deeper into a data set and think critically. Graphing exercises that ask students to practice graphing on their own, beyond what they do in MyLab Math. Mini-Essay questions that prompt students to think conceptually, also beyond what they do in MyLab Math.
