Crossing the River with Dogs: Problem Solving for College Students has been adapted from the popular high school text to provide an accessible and coherent college-level course in mathematical problem solving for adults. Focusing entirely on problem solving and using issues relevant to college students for examples, the authors continue their approach of explaining classic as well as non-traditional strategies through dialogs among fictitious students. This text is appropriate for a problem solving, liberal arts mathematics, mathematics for elementary teachers, or developmental mathematics course.Customer Review: Worth every cent
I am a first year teacher, teaching high school math topics (Algebra, Geometry, Pre-Calc, etc) and I find the problems in this book to be amazing! I have a study skills class that is required for all 10th graders. The classes have students who are in Pre-Algebra up to students taking Algebra 2 honors. I find the problems in this book to be an even playing field for all levels! The problems require the students to think and problem solve using various strategies explained throughout the book. I've recommended it to every teacher I know, and they've all agreed that this book is a must have! No matter what you teach, you can always find a handful of problems that will have the students becoming more advanced problem solvers. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!
Customer Review: Great text!
This book is a great text book. My professor loves it and I really like it too. The way it makes you think is so different than other concepts in the math realm. This book makes you think and I recommed incorporating Sodoku puzzles into your curriculum if you teach a problem solving class. I'm only a student, but they really make you think.
Dog collars are one of the most common things a pet owner buys for his or her pet. Most people purchase a normal collar for their pet but there are many more options available today which would delight not only the buyer but also the dog.
Dog collars are of many different kinds, depending on the material used. These include cotton, nylon, leather, suede, metallic, handmade, woven, velvet, foam, and even gold, silver and platinum. They are designed in beautiful patterns such as polka dots, python prints, crocodile prints, animal prints, valentine, tuxedo style, denim, bandana, mink, crystal, bone, bows, Victorian, neon, glitter, mink, and others. Some collars are also being fitted with devices like speakers, RFID, GPS, reflectors, adjustable buckles, and other attachments.
Most people would not hesitate to spend a fortune to please their canine friends. Many manufacturers are taking this opportunity to design exquisite collars that would delight even the choosiest of pet owners and their friends. Some of the fanciest collars are those made of gold, silver, platinum or other expensive metals, embedded with precious and semi-precious gemstones like rubies, sapphires, and Swarovski crystals.
Some are also personalized with beautifully decorated beads that spell the pets name, or slide-on letters encrusted with gemstones. Some collars are also attached with attractive charms shaped like hearts, bones or the pets name, decorated with gemstones. Prices of these can start from $20 and may go up to $300 or more.
