Functions Modeling Change: A Preparation for Calculus, 2nd Texas Edition

Developed by the Consortium based at Harvard University and funded by a National Science Foundation Grant, this revised edition is designed for use in conjunction with the High School Precalculus requirements of the Texas State Standards. The text is developed to provide students with the foundation they need to succeed in Calculus as an advanced High School student or an entering University student. It’s approach is thought-provoking for well-prepared students while still accessible to students with weaker backgrounds. It provides verbal, algebraic, visual and numerical points of view to give students another way of mastering the material. A large number of real-world examples and problems enable students to create mathematical models that will help them understand the world in which they live.
