Additional Product Information:
Today’s students have sensibilities and needs that are very different from those of even ten years ago. Visual and auditory media have changed dramatically in recent years; most textbooks have not kept pace with these changes. Student purchasing habits have also changed dramatically.

The design of Portafolio is colorful, lively and easy-to-navigate; the program includes an array of video, audio and print components, integrated with the textbook in a variety of ways to address individual learning styles; and the program is available in an innovative two-volume soft-cover format, which allows students to purchase only the portion they are using in the current semester.
