Textbook features & Samples
Clear & easy to use layout
Back In Business is designed to be very user friendly with uncluttered, easy to access content clearly laid out for each learning outcome.
I've added in helpful infographics for certain topics to help students, as well as learning links to different chapters and a review and research feature for students to work on during class.
Approaching The Exam Section
I break down the different action verbs and apply them to different chapters to try to give a greater understanding of what approach is needed for different types of questions in the exam.
I will be updating the book after the sample papers are released in April so that these sections can mirror those papers.
