The strategy associated with unit conversions is emphasized so that students will be comfortable applying any conversion factor necessary to solve the problem. The Unit Conversion Tutor Series is a complete 8 lesson series covering all of the core topics in detail. What sets this series apart from other teaching tools is that the concepts are taught entirely through step-by-step example problems of increasing difficulty. It works by introducing each new concept in an easy to understand way and using example problems that are worked out step-by-step and line-by-line to completion. If a student has a problem with coursework or homework, simply find a similar problem fully worked on in the series and review for the steps needed to solve the problem. This series if best used in order from Volume 1 through Volume 8. Teachers User Instruction & Resource Guide - Includes Recommended books & Unit Conversion Websites.
