How Does the Cruz Package Provide Complete Support?


Fundamentals of Taxation authors Cruz, Deschamps, Niswander, Prendergast, Schisler, and Trone know that every component of the learning package must be integrated and supported by strong ancillaries. Critical to any successful ancillary package is author involvement—for this reason, the author team writes all instructor resources that accompany Fundamentals of Taxation.

A secure Instructor Resource Center stores your essential course materials to save you prep time before class. The Instructor’s Manual, Solutions Manual, PowerPoint presentations, and sample syllabi are now just a couple of clicks away. You will also find useful packaging information about other available supplements. Products like WebCT, Blackboard, eCollege, and Top-Class (a product of WBT) all expand the reach of your course. Online discussion and message boards will now complement your office hours. Thanks to a sophisticated tracking system, you will know which students need more attention—even if they don’t ask for help. That’s because online testing scores are recorded and automatically placed in your grade book, and if a student is struggling with coursework, a special alert message lets you know.
