The traditional general mathematics market has been replaced in some schools with courses called Tech Prep Math, Applied Mathematics, or Mathematics for Technology. Schools that offer these courses generally want programs that integrate ideas from algebra, geometry, probability, statistics, and logic, and focus on real-world applications.As a three-year series, MathMatters covers all essential skills of first-year algebra and informal geometry. Book 3 includes some attention to formal geometry proof and most essential Algebra 2 skills.Although MathMatters consists of three books many schools may choose to use only one or two of the three books in the series. When this is the market, Books 1, 2, and 3 are viewed as "levels" and the school's selection is determined by the book or books that best fit their needsThe list of schools that require all students to complete algebra one is growing rapidly. Students who would be in a traditional general mathematics program often cannot handle the pace of a regular algebra one course. MathMatters, Books 1, 2, 3 offer a viable alternative. In fact, students completing this three-year sequence will have also covered the essential skills and concepts of geometry and much of the content of Algebra 2! Many states now require students to complete geometry as well as algebra one.
