Résumé
Computing Essentials 2005 offers a unique, visual orientation that gives students a basic understanding of computing concepts. Computing Essentials 2005 is one of the few books on the market that is written by a professor who still teaches the course every semester and loves it. While combining current topics and technology into a highly illustrated design geared to catch students’ interest and motivate them, this text provides an accurate snapshot of computing today. When bundled with software application lab manuals, students are given a complete representation of the fundamental issues surrounding the personal computing environment.
- Making IT Work: A two page spread that appeared in only four chapters in the prior edition is now being expanded into each chapter. These will tie to the video series and offer students the "why does this matter to me?" side of computer literacy as it pertains to the chapter. This was so well received in the last edition, we decided to expand.
- Concept checks: These occur at the conclusion of most A-head sections. These serve to reinforce knowledge for the students right at the point of learning.
- End of chapter three level system of instruction: This allows students (and professors) to follow a methodology of reviewing materials. The first level offers a review of key terms, followed by level two-a review of key concepts, followed by level three-hands on applications. The trademark O'Leary visual summary follows this to close out the chapter for students.
- A Look to the Future: Offers students a glimpse at what may be coming down the road as it pertains to the current chapter, and how this will effect them. These close out every chapter before the end of chapter materials.
