Many years ago, when I was a young boy, my father
Joseph J. Bannon would show me beautiful pictures of parks, mountains,
Publisher lakes, streams, and oceans. He would ask me, “What is
jjbannon@sagamorepub.com wrong with this picture? What is missing?” I would study
the pictures, trying to see what could possibly be missing
from such stunning photographs. After a time, my father
Peter L. Bannon would say, “Where are the people? Parks are made to be
President enjoyed by people. It is about improving the lives of the
pbannon@sagamorepub.com people.”
Sagamore Publishing has always taken this philosophy to
heart. All of the areas that Sagamore serves have a direct
“hands-on” impact on improving the quality of life for all
William A. Anderson populations. As we continue to expand Sagamore, we are

Interactive Component
This textbook is created to be both interactive and practical. Students are presented with
a common real-life issue or problem, and they are asked to understand the situation and
attempt to think how they would logically work their way through it. Students are then
presented with a series of progressively elaborate interactive activities that are constructed
to provide the skills necessary to most effectively solve the original problem presented. These
skills will allow students to learn the terminology, resources, and processes that are available
for effective communication and identification of resources available to address the problem
in the most educated way possible.
This learning system provides instructors the flexibility to deliver the course completely online
or to use a blended (traditional classroom–online) delivery method. Students are active
participants in the learning process because they are required to be engaged in problems that
require action. The learning system is user friendly for instructors and students.
These clicker activities are intended to educate students on content that is often difficult to
convey in an interesting or engaging way.
