The books in this series are written to be used in courses such as NZ Diploma in Business, National Diploma in Business, Travel and Tourism Certificates and Diplomas, university and polytechnic 100 level degree papers and some Foundation Studies programmes. The books are designed as supporting materials to the nominated textbooks. They synthesise complex data in a simple way and allow students who cannot or do not use textbooks effectively to achieve learning. This approach also helps them work out how to use weighty and comprehensive textbooks. This is a series of student workbooks based on a strongly visual learning approach with a range of self-tests that can be used independently by students or worked on during group tutorials. These can vary in standard, dependent on the learning outcomes specified in the curriculum. The series therefore has added value for students who are learning in English as a second language e.g. Polynesian, Maori, Chinese or other Asian, African and European students. The academic level has been set at level 5 but can be used at levels 4 to 6. It is based on the NZQA Model of Assessment RCAP. R=Recall, C=Comprehension, A=Application and P=Problem solving.
