For introductory computer courses in Microsoft 2007 or courses in computer concepts with a lab component for Microsoft Office 2007 applications, using Windows Vista as the operating system.

The goal of the Exploring series has been to move students beyond the point and click, helping them understand the why and how behind each skill.

Beyond The Point and Click

Students go to college now with a different set of skills than they did 5 years ago.  The new edition of Exploring moves students beyond the basics of the software at a faster pace, without sacrificing fundamental skills to ensure that they will be engaged from Chapter 1 throughout the book.

Diversity

Students have diverse career goals.  To target the variety of majors taking the course, Exploring offers examples relevant to every student.  Several examples in the text include the:

·        Health sciences

·        Hospitality

·        Urban planning

·        Business

Studying Made Easy

Students read, prepare, and study differently than they used to. Rather than reading a book cover to cover, students want to easily identify what they need to know, and then learn it efficiently.  The key features bring students into the content, making the text easy to use.

Some features include:

• Objective Mapping
• Pull Quotes
• Key Terms

OTHER TOPICS OF DISTINCTION

Key Features of the Office 2007 Revision

• NEW! “Moving Beyond the Basics” introduces advanced skills earlier because students are learning basic skills faster.

• White Pages/Yellow Pages clearly distinguish theory from skills covered in Hands-On exercises, so students always know what they are supposed to be doing.

• NEW! Objective Mapping enables students to skip the skills, quickly finding concepts that they don’t know by scanning the chapter opener page for the exact location of new concepts.

• NEW! Pull Quotes entice students into the theory by emphasizing the most interesting points.

• NEW! Mini-cases with Rubrics are open ended exercises that guide both instructors and students to a solution with a specific rubric for each case.

• NEW! More End-of-Chapter Exercises offer instructors more options for assessment.  Each chapter has approximately 12-15 exercises ranging from multiple-choice to open-ended projects, including mid-level and capstone exercises covering all skills in each chapter.

• Case Study Related icons are available to help students identify skills specific to each case study.

• NEW! Conceptual Animations connect theory with skills, by illustrating tough to understand concepts with interactive multimedia. 

• NEW! Capstone Production Tests, included in the text and on the IRCD, allows instructors to asses all the skills in the chapter with a single project.

Integrated Assessment and Training

myitlab for Microsoft 2007, is a solution designed by professors that allows you to easily deliver Office courses with defensible assessment and outcomes-based training.  No longer is the technology mapped to your textbook, this 1:1 content relationship between the software and the text means that online assessment and training will work with your textbook to move students beyond the point and click.

• Advanced Reporting — With myitlab you will get advanced reporting capabilities including a detailed student click stream, providing you with true, defensible grading.
• Project-based assessment — Test students on Exploring Projects, or break down assignments into individual Office application skills.
• No installation required! myitlab runs entirely from the Web.

Unique Instructor Resources

Reference Cards are available to outline KEY objectives in each chapter, helping instructors anticipate where students get stuck and how to get them “un-stuck.”  Helping to bridge the gap between the instructor and student on more difficult topics by offering:

• Concept Summaries — Reference cards that outline chapter objectives and common pitfalls.
• Case Study Lecture Demonstration Document — Provides instructors with a lecture sample based on the chapter opening case that will guide them to critically use the skills covered in the chapter, with examples of other ways the skills can be applied.

The 2^nd edition now includes a chapter of Windows Vista and all screen shots and instructions have been updated to cover Windows Vista.

NEW! Updated Windows Vista Coverage

NEW! Cumulative Capstone Exercises are available for each application to tie application use to real-life professional situations in the arts, hospitality, legal, and health-care industries.

NEW! Student Reference Foldout Card for Office 2007 Ribbons includes text explanations and screenshots of Office 2007 Ribbons for Word, Excel, Access, PowerPoint, and Common Office.  It also has one panel showing differences between XP and Vista.

  The goal of the Exploring series has been to move students beyond the point and click and help the student understand why and when they would perform a skill.   The system structure considers the following three points.

   

  Students go to college now with a different set of skills than they did 5 years ago.  With this in mind, the new edition of Exploring moves students beyond the basics of the software at a faster pace, without sacrificing coverage of the fundamental skills that everybody needs to know.  This ensures that students will be engaged from Chapter 1 throughout the book.

   

  Students have diverse career goals. The examples in the text (and the accompanying Instructor Resources) include the health sciences, hospitality, urban planning, business and more so Exploring will be relevant to every student in the course.

   

  Students read, prepare and study differently than they used to. Rather than reading a book cover to cover students want to easily identify what they need to know, and then learn it efficiently.  The key features bring students into the content and make the text easy to use.

   

  Students will be more engaged, achieve a higher level understanding in Office, and will successfully complete this course.
