Q: Are you looking for an alternative to the point and click method of teaching Microsoft applications? Do you want to provide your students with case study along with conceptual coverage and hands-on exercises?

 

A: The Exploring Series approach provides a well-balanced combination of theory and hands-on exercises. Chapter opening case studies allow students to preview the skills covered in each chapter and to set the stage of learning.

 

OTHER POINTS OF DIFFERENTIATION:
  • Chapter opening case studies—To preview the skills covered in each chapter and to set the stage of learning.
  • Sequential Page Numbering throughout each text. Pages start with number 1 and move sequential. For example: Page 1 to 500.

    • This ensures students can easily find assigned material.
  • Three levels of chapter-ending exercises—Multiple Choice (study guide), Practice (hands-on), and Case Studies (open-ended).

    • Offers students plenty of opportunity for review and reinforcement.
  • Incorporates the Internet throughout
    • Keeps students up-to-date with the pervasiveness of the Internet and makes it easy for them to locate Web-related information.
  • Quality, four-color, spiral bound—Provides students witn an attractive easy-to-use format. (Perfect binding is also available).
  • Companion Website–Provides students and instructors with additional resources and tools to facilitate the learning process.
  • Instructor Resources, including Instructor's Manual, Solutions Disk, PowerPoint, and Data Disks, as well as the Computerized Testing System, are available on one CD—Instructor Resource Center.
  • OneKey course content available.
