We have been busy re-writing many of the chapters, and with this we will be changing the order of the chapters.  Many of the chapters now contain Chapter Summaries, Terms, Study Guides and additional  homework problems.  The Teacher Materials includes In-text Answers, Study Guide Solutions, handouts, worksheets, Excel spreadsheet templates, Excel spreadsheet solutions and a few chapters have sample tests.  We are constantly adding more, so check often.  In addition, many teachers are sharing materials on our NING site, so please post your materials and check there for some really great materials and ideas.  Three chapters in the Probabilistic Materials have new chapter numbers.  The Poisson Chapter has been moved to after the Binomial/Geometric Chapter, see table below.
