Book Description
The third edition of Crossing the River with Dogs: issue Solving for College Students promotes the notion that students learn best when working in groups and that the abilities required for actual workplace issue solving are those skills of collaboration. This is because the author believes that students learn best when they work together to solve problems. The work is intended to educate students several ways for resolving mathematical issues while also enhancing students' writing, oral communication, and collaborative skills. The writers continue their strategy of explaining traditional as well as non-traditional strategies through dialogues between fictitious students, with the only focus of the book being on problem solving and making use of situations that are relevant to students now enrolled in college as examples. The problem-solving, quantitative reasoning, liberal arts mathematics, mathematics for elementary teachers, or developmental mathematics course would all benefit from using this material.
