Fundamentals of Engineering Economic Analysis

Описание

Reading Reviews introduce the text and encourage mastery of terminology
and concepts. Lessons present the topics in video form, and Excel® Lessons
present basics of Excel® functions. Examples encourage students to view a
problem-solving process and model it in a similar assigned problem.
Practice encourages more problem-solving—the key to success in the
course—and offers abundant student support. Then Homework requires
students to apply the problem-solving skills to new scenarios. If used
sequentially, the pre-created assignments guide students through concepts
and problem-solving in a progressive fashion.
Instructors may choose to use all of the pre-created assignments, or choose
specific categories based on their course needs. Further, assignments may
be readily modified to add or remove questions. For instance, if instructors
choose to omit a section of a chapter, they can easily remove related
questions from a pre-created assignment. Each question is aligned to a
learning objective and section from the text, so it is easy to see and add or
remove questions. Assignment policies were carefully chosen and vary by
category, and may also be modified to suit instructor preferences.
The structured learning path approach and associated categories have been
refined and class tested over many semesters—by the author—and offer a
proven method to help students master engineering economy.
3. Abundant Problems for Practice and
Assessment
The pre-created assignments noted above utilize course-tested questions,
many of which are available for students to view in the enhanced e-text.
While the students may be familiar with the wording, problems are
configured to present algorithmic values—so individual students receive a
unique calculation scenario.
Problems in the text and WileyPLUS course are categorized as Student
Facing or Instructor-Only. The student facing problems are included in the
digital text, and many are also available to assign to students in
WileyPLUS. Student facing problems are generally intended to support
student self-study or low-stakes formative assessment, and many are also
included in pre-created assignments.
