MLCS — Math Literacy Textbook (Almy & Foes)

Since the start of the New Life work in 2009, the most common question has normally been “so, this is cool stuff … what textbook can I use?”  I have talked here about the general interest among publishers, who are interested in developing books for the New Life courses (MLCS and Transitions).

I wanted to give a shout-out to Kathy Almy and Heather Foes, who are getting very close to having the first MLCS book published (by Pearson).  Kathy & Heather have worked incredibly hard to develop a textbook, one that combines the content of MLCS with a design that makes learning accessible for students and teaching easier for faculty (especially adjuncts).

Recently, Kathy shared an image of the cover for their text, which is at http://almydoesmath.blogspot.com/2012/09/mlcs-book-preliminary-cover.html 
[The final bound text might have a slightly different cover.]

Congratulations to KathyAlmy, Heather Foes, and the folks at Pearson for getting the first MLCS book ready to publish.

[This is not a paid endorsement; however, my college will be using this Math Lit textbook for our new Mathematical Literacy course next semester.]
