This review is from: Problem-Based Learning for Math & Science: Integrating Inquiry and the Internet (Paperback)
This is a very user friendly book with ideas that can be incorporated into the classroom with ease. It covers general topics so it can be used anywhere. I used it for freshmen in algebra and physical science.
