The sixth edition, first published as an ebook, and this seventh edition carry forward the philosophy and structure of the earlier editions. This book is not a comprehensive treatise on the subject of civil procedure, yet it provides a mixture of expository text, cases, and self-testing questions in nearly all of the major areas of the subject.

This course focuses on both theoretical knowledge and hands on application projects. The course will prepare students to not only utilize Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and Access software, but will also to be able to translate this knowledge to other similar application software commonly used in industry.

This book was developed in an attempt to maintain in one location the information and references that point to the many important historical developments of the short life of the computer graphics world as we know it.

This open textbook aims to fill the gap between the open-source implementations and the open-source network specifications by providing a detailed but pedagogical description of the key principles that guide the operation of the Internet.

Suppose you want to build a computer network, one that has the potential to grow to global proportions and to support applications as diverse as teleconferencing, video on demand, electronic commerce, distributed computing, and digital libraries. What available technologies would serve as the underlying building blocks, and what kind of software architecture would you design to integrate these building blocks into an effective communication service? Answering this question is the overriding goal of this book—to describe the available building materials and then to show how they can be used to construct a network from the ground up.

This textbook covers the traditional introductory Computer Science I topics but takes a unique approach. Topics are covered in a language-agnostic manner in the first part with supplemental parts that cover the same concepts in a specific language. The current version covers C, Java, and PHP. This textbook as been used in several Computer Science I sections over multiple years at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

In the digital tapestry of the 21st century, education, particularly in the realms of Computer Applications Technology (CAT) and Information Technology (IT), stands at the forefront of innovation and transformation. It is with immense pride and enthusiasm that we present this pioneering Open Educational Resource (OER) Textbook, a testament to the collaborative spirit and intellectual rigor of a group of distinguished postgraduate students from North-West University, South Africa: L. Van der Walt, B. Molokwane and N. Mbele. Under the editorship of Dr. C. Bosch, this textbook emerges as a beacon of knowledge, co-creation, and dissemination, meticulously crafted to serve the vibrant community of computer science educators.Embarking on a journey through the rich landscapes of learning theories in CAT and IT education, this textbook unveils the multifaceted dimensions of teaching and learning strategies that resonate with the demands of contemporary education. It meticulously navigates through the intricacies of effective pedagogical approaches, ensuring that educators are well-equipped to foster environments where learning is not just absorbed but experienced and enacted.  

The text, labs, and review questions in this book are designed as an introduction to the applied topic of computer security (cybersecurity). With these resources students will learn ways of preventing, identifying, understanding, and recovering from attacks against computer systems. This text also presents the evolution of computer security, the main threats, attacks and mechanisms, applied computer operation and security protocols, main data transmission and storage protection methods, cryptography, network systems availability, recovery, and business continuation procedures.

From the University of Florida Department of Mathematics, this is the second volume in a three volume presentation of calculus from a concepts perspective. The emphasis is on learning the concepts behind the theories, not the rote completion of problems.

Using highly interactive learning design, this Concepts in Statistics course provides students with a strong understanding of fundamental principles that guide the study of statistical inference. Drawing from Open Learning Initiative (OLI) source content, this course’s simulations and lab-style synthesis activities invite hands-on exploration of statistical concepts. Students learn to summarize data graphically and numerically; examine relationships among quantitative data; understand the role of probability and probability distributions; link probability to statistical inference; and conduct foundational statistical calculations and analyses.
