The Martin-Gay principle: Every student can succeed

Elayn Martin-Gay’s student-centric approach is woven seamlessly throughout her texts and MyLab™ courses, giving students the optimal amount of support through effective video resources, an accessible writing style, and study skills support built into the program. 

 

This revision of Martin-Gay's worktext series continues her focus on students with new and improved resources to support student success. Algebra Foundations, 2nd Edition is a comprehensive All in One program that offers everything needed to teach Prealgebra, Introductory Algebra, and Intermediate Algebra in one easy-to-use solution. Three courses’ worth of material, in one seamless MyLab Math course and text, allows instructors to pick and choose what content they want to cover and when they want to cover it. This content is designed to work for any course format, and can even be used in a corequisite course—giving instructors a library of review material to support a credit-level corequisite course. 

 

Two choices for a MyLab course provide options when it comes to assignments and interactivity; time-based access options make accessing the content flexible and keeps the course completely customizable. Elayn Martin-Gay’s signature approach is integrated throughout the MyLab to ensure a completely consistent experience from print to MyLab.

About our author Elayn Martin-Gay has taught mathematics at the University of New Orleans for more than 25 years. Her numerous teaching awards include the local University Alumni Association’s Award for Excellence in Teaching, and Outstanding Developmental Educator at University of New Orleans, presented by the Louisiana Association of Developmental Educators. Prior to writing textbooks, Elayn Martin-Gay developed an acclaimed series of lecture videos to support developmental mathematics students. These highly successful videos originally served as the foundation materials for her texts. Today, the videos are specific to each book in her series. She has also created Chapter Test Prep Videos to help students during their most “teachable moment” (as they prepare for a test) along with Instructor-to-Instructor videos that provide teaching tips, hints, and suggestions for every developmental mathematics course, including basic mathematics, prealgebra, beginning algebra, and intermediate algebra. Elayn is the author of 13 published textbooks and a new Interactive Assignment MyLab® Math course, all specializing in developmental mathematics courses. She has also published series in Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Geometry. She has participated as an author across the broadest range of educational materials: textbooks, videos, tutorial software, and courseware. This provides an opportunity of various combinations for an integrated teaching and learning package offering great consistency for the student.
