  • Is Practical! Sections on critical thinking skills and strategies, goals, and project assignments are included.
  • Is Research-Based! The authors use student-transfer data and feedback to make sure that students leave the course actually “knowing” certain basic concepts, theories, history, court cases and ethical issues and standards that will put them in the forefront of their 4-year college or university classes.
