Professor Holmes began teaching with Hawkes Learning’s mathematics materials in 2016. While the Math Department uses Hawkes’ materials in multiple classes at Ole Miss, such as Business Math and Business Calculus, Professor Holmes has taught College Algebra and Statistics courses with Hawkes.
We asked Professor Holmes what he loves about Hawkes, and he shared the following:
My favorite thing is that Hawkes gives students so many resources when they learn and practice.
Hawkes gives students some options in the book, while the software’s Practice mode takes it a step further, giving them different options to figure out where they went wrong. “I like for my students to use the Practice mode, and I like the fact that it offers so many resources for the students. The students like Hawkes and when they compare it to other software, they tend to like Hawkes more.“
