What users are saying…“We use the Multicolumn Journal from South-Western with
the Online Working Papers. I have been very happy both
with the text and the working papers. This system has
allowed me to pinpoint exactly what students are doing
wrong, and I have the time to work one-on-one with them to
assist them in understanding. I cannot say enough about
how this system has improved my instruction.” Kathy H. Business Education Teacher, Wisconsin
