Summary

For introductory courses in computer concepts, digital literacy, or computer literacy, often including instruction in Microsoft Office.

Always current; always innovative
Revel Visualizing Technology
 is a fully online and interactive environment that integrates dynamic media – including videos, IT Simulations, and tracked practice opportunities – into the narrative, so instructors see students’ progress along the way. It provides the highly visual, web-style layout and current content that instructors value and the engagement students need. Through its engaging learning experience, Revel prepares students to  meaningfully participate in class and provides the skills they need to be digitally literate in their everyday lives and the workplace.

The  7th Edition continues to provide a hands-on approach in which students learn a skill, watch a Viz Clip video, and then apply what they’ve learned to an activity. Each chapter has an emphasis on ethics, green computing, and careers. And, as technology continually evolves, so does the content.

Revel is Pearson’s newest way of delivering our respected content. Fully digital and highly engaging, Revel replaces the textbook and gives students everything they need for the course. Informed by extensive research on how people read, think, and learn, Revel is an interactive learning environment that enables students to read, practice, and study in one continuous experience – for less than the cost of a traditional textbook.

NOTE:
Revel is a fully digital delivery of Pearson content. This ISBN is for the Revel access card. In addition to your purchase, you will need a course invite link, provided by your instructor, to register for and use Revel.
