Most students will learn
more by reading the course material. The reading
material presents graphics, tables, and practice questions that are not
available through the audio files. Nevertheless, we understand
that some students may want to supplement their reading with
audio files. There are
auditory learners who retain information better when it is delivered
through sound or speech rather than written form.
To accommodate
auditory learners,
we have embedded the MP3 files below.
