The modules were developed by creating an updated version of the now out-of-print Math for the Real World series. The content has been reorganized, supplemented and revised.  As the material was updated, the content in the Breakthrough to Math series was reviewed to make sure all concepts in the first two levels were covered in the modules. Customary measures were replaced with metric measures.  American currency was replaced with Canadian money.  American content was “Canadianized”.
 
The applications were re-cast as task-based activities and cross-referenced with the Ontario Adult Literacy Curriculum Framework (OALCF).  An OALCF connection section is included for each task-based activity in the answer keys.
