This text fits the Introduction to Computers, Introduction to Microcomputing or the Introduction to Computer Information Systems (CIS) course. The brief, colourful text is packaged with a state-of-the-art multimedia CD-ROM that provides animation, video and voice-over instruction for computer concepts, and complete interactive instruction of popular software packages (eg. Windows 3.1, Word 6.0, Lotus, Excel 5.0, Access 2.0, PowerPoint, and ProComm Plus). The concepts portion of the CD-ROM brings abstract concepts to life, turns topics such as computer architecture, communications and databases into vivid, hands-on experiences. Software packages are taught completely through instructions and exercises on the CD-ROM. Animation, voice-overs and video easily guide the novice from the first steps through the mastery of each package. Immediate feedback insures that students will never take a false step without correction. The Instructor's Manual provides specific strategies for teaching with multimedia (the CD-ROM). A computerized test bank is available.
The individual software packages covered on the CD-ROM can be packaged with any McGraw-Hill software application tutorial or used on their own for self-paced learning of the software.
