The zyBooks version of Data Structures & Algorithms in Java provides a powerful interactive learning experience for students.

This zyBook provides a highly interactive introduction to operating systems, providing insight into the underlying relationship between software and hardware.

Brings COD – ARM Edition to life with numerous integrated activities including dozens of animations of concepts like pipelining and hundreds of interactive learning questions. Contains embedded auto-generated, auto-graded challenges like LEGv8 assembly programming (subset of ARMv8) and rewards homework points for student activity completion.

Teaches the discipline of embedded programming, independent of any particular device and emphasizes capturing behavior with a computation model (state machine). Students write their own task scheduler in C (basis of RTOSes). Contains more than 400 participation activities including questions, animations, and browser-based tools including SM capture, PID simulator, and more. Accompanies the RI Tools suite (Windows): C programming, emulation, state machine capture; good for additional homework. Can be used for classes with or without a physical device-specific lab.

Presents a highly interactive overview of the AP Computer Science Principles' big ideas: Creativity, Abstraction, Data and Information, Algorithms, Programming, The Internet, and Global Impact, and provides real insights, experiences, and practical skills relating to the exciting world of computing technology.

Short intro (2 chapters) to a systematic troubleshooting process containing numerous real-world troubleshooting examples. Teaches basic debugging (using a simple programming language) with debugging examples to illustrate common calculation, logic, loop, and function errors.

Circuits (3rd ed) published by the National Technology & Science Press, brought to life with numerous integrated activities including dozens of animations of concepts like solving an RLC circuit and hundreds of interactive learning questions. Contains embedded auto-generated and graded challenges like reading resistor values. Rewards homework points for student activity completion.
