Foundation Mathematics WileyPLUS Student Package

Foundation Mathematics is an all new digital learning

package designed to engage students and build their confidence

in mathematical techniques. This fully developed WileyPLUS

course is not another heavyweight, generic textbook but a

newly developed solution to meet students? learning

expectations in the 21stcentury.

Foundation Mathematics has been developed for

non-specialists studying mathematics as part of their degree

course who need to build up their mathematical skills. Starting

from basic concepts Foundation Mathematics introduces the

topics using unthreatening, illustrative media that ease

students into the theory and demonstrates how mathematical

concepts relate to straightforward, everyday ideas. This unique

approach quickly brings students of varying ability up to speed and

takes the anxiety out of studying mathematics.

Foundation Mathematics raises student

engagement through a variety of integrated and

contextualised tools and media embedded directly into the

course, giving students the opportunity to practice and play

with concepts for comprehension rather than having to read around

the subject. The package utilises video, animations, applets and

games so students can interact with mathematical concepts and

directly observe the data in action.

The package includes an extensive testing and assignment

facility containing over 2,000 unique questions, all with

algorithmic variables to give students endless opportunities

for practice and revision. The testing facility allows detailed

reporting so lecturers can quickly assess large cohorts and see

how well their students are dealing with the material and who needs

help.

Foundation Mathematics covers topics for foundation level

and year one courses, as well as extension material for those that

want to dig deeper into the theory, making the package ideal for

departments wishing to increase students? mathematical

understanding and raise student outcomes.
