ABSTRACT

In order to increase the time and effort students spend on homework, studying for tests, and working on learning activities to pass a class, an online homework delivery system was recently adopted at a diverse, midsize, urban, open admissions university. This paper describes the selection and results from incorporating a publisher's online materials into mathematics courses and, in particular, college algebra.
