Mathematics for the Trades CTE Program with digital integration
Mathematics for the Trades presents relevant math concepts in ways that connect with students wherever they are.
Coverage of multiple trades
Students interested in the automotive or electrical trades, plumbing, allied health, construction, and other areas discover the direct connection between math and their work.
Real-life examples
Extended problems at the end of each section require students to use the skills they’ve just learned. The problems are often rooted in situations encountered on job sites.
Text accessibility
It is important to open education up to as many people as possible. This program contains markup to enable structural navigation and compatibility with assistive technologies.
On-the-go learning
Our program is built to help students wherever they are through engaging online resources they can access on any device with an internet connection.
The word note calls attention to conclusions or consequences that might be overlooked, common mistakes students make, or alternative explanations.
A careful comment points out a common mistake that students might make and shows how to avoid it.
Learning help gives students an alternative explanation or slightly different way of thinking about and working with the concepts being presented.
A closer look signals a follow-up to an answer or a worked solution. It may provide a more detailed or an alternative look at the whole process.
