Overview

Students learn best when they see a concept applied in the context of examples they understand. That is why Economics Today: The Micro View is so successful in classrooms where students hail from a wide variety of majors, backgrounds, and ages. An abundance of relentlessly current, news-worthy examples motivate every chapter and reflect the interests of today’s diverse student population. In this new edition, Miller has responded to the way students use their textbook as a study tool by incorporating new pedagogy to help students study effectively and by giving them more opportunities to practice. For today’s student on the go, we’ve created a portable version of Economics Today: The Micro View that is three-hole punched. Students can take only what they need to class, incorporate their own notes, and save money! Each Books à la Carte text arrives with a laminated study card, perfect for students to use when preparing for exams, plus access to MyEconLab in CourseCompass™. MyEconLab in CourseCompass™ provides additional optional customization and communication tools. Instructors who teach distance-learning courses or very large lecture sections find the CourseCompass™ format useful because they can upload course documents and assignments, customize the order of chapters, and use communication features such as Digital Dropbox and Discussion Board.
