This focused resource guide, "Black Lives in Astronomy," includes specific written and video resources about and by 25 black astronomers, as well as general materials to examine the history and issues facing black members of the astronomical community. It includes both older, established scientists and people early in their careers. It is aimed at the Astro 101 and amateur astronomer level, and thus does not include any technical materials. I hope this resource will give instructors and students examples of authentic black voices that can be shown in class or used in assignments.

Introduction to Business is a survey business course providing a multidisciplinary exami-nation of how culture, society, human behavior and economic systems interact with le-gal, international, political, and financial institutions to affect business policy and practic-es within the U.S. and the global marketplace. Students will evaluate how these influences impact the primary areas of business in-cluding: organizational structure and design; leadership, human resource management, and organized labor practices; marketing; organizational communication; technology; entrepreneurship; legal, accounting, and financial practices; the stock and securities markets; and therefore, affect a business’ ability to achieve its organizational goals.

We view this textbook as a guide. In constructing these seventeen chapters, we have worked to lead you on a voyage through the world of business and financial reporting. We want to help you attain a usable knowledge of the principles of financial accounting as well as an appreciation for its importance and logic. By learning its theory, presentation, and procedures, individuals become capable of using financial accounting to make prudent business decisions. That is an important goal regardless of the direction of your career. We have relied on our experience as teachers to highlight the aspects of this material that make it interesting, logical, and relevant.

MATH&148 is a calculus course for business students. It is designed for students who want a brief course in calculus. Topics include differential and integral calculus of elementary functions. Problems emphasize business and social science applications. Translating words into mathematics and solving word problems are emphasized over algebra. Applications are mainly business oriented (e.g. cost, revenue, and profit). Mathematical theory and complex algebraic manipulations are not mainstays of this course, which is designed to be less rigorous than the calculus sequence for scientists and engineers. Topics are presented according to the rule of four: geometrically, numerically, analytically, and verbally. That is, symbolic manipulation must be balanced with graphical interpretation, numerical examples, and writing. Trigonometry is not part of the course.

This is an online textbook for a one semester calculus course aimed at business students.
The material covered is fairly standard: differentiation and integration without trigonometry, partial derivatives and optimization of functions of several variables.
There are several characteristics that differentiate the text from other texts:
Excel is used as the main computational engine throughout the text and the needed Excel skills are taught rather than assumed.
Examples, exercises, and vocabulary are tailored to uses in a business curriculum.
There is a modeling thread throughout the text.
Webwork versions of exercises are available on request.
