Synopsis

Fully updated and revised, DISCOVERING COMPUTERS ©2014 has been completely reexamined to reflect the evolving needs of Introductory Computing students. This exciting new edition maintains many longstanding hallmarks, but provides a greater emphasis on what students really need to know to be successful digital citizens in college and beyond. New critical thinking and problem solving exercises are included in every feature throughout the text, engaging students in regular practice of higher-order thinking skills. In addition, students have more opportunity for hands-on practice with the completely revised end-of-chapter activities. To better reflect the importance of certain topics in today’s digital world, coverage of enterprise computing, ethics, Internet research skills, mobile computing, operating systems (other than Windows), browsers, security, and Web 2.0 has been expanded and integrated. With these enhancements and more, the new DISCOVERING COMPUTERS is an even more engaging teaching and learning tool for your classroom.
