Ball of Cleveland State University brings his new survey of general chemistry text, Introductory Chemistry, to the market with a fresh theme that will be sure to hold student interest: "Chemistry is Everywhere." Introductory Chemistry is intended for a one-semester introductory or preparatory chemistry course. Throughout the chapters, David presents two features that reinforce the theme of the textbook, that chemistry is everywhere. The first is the boxed feature titled, appropriately, ”Chemistry is Everywhere“. This feature takes a topic of the chapter and demonstrates how this topic shows up in everyday life. In the introductory chapter, ”Chemistry is Everywhere“ focuses on the personal hygiene products that students may use every morning: toothpaste, soap, shampoo among others. These products are chemicals, aren't they? This book explores some of the chemical reactions like the ones that give students clean and healthy teeth, and shiny hair. This feature makes it clear to students that chemistry is, indeed, everywhere, and it will promote student retention in what is sometimes considered an intimidating course. The second boxed feature focuses on chemistry that students likely indulge in every day: eating and drinking. In the ”Food and Drink App“, David discusses how the chemistry of the chapter applies to things that students eat and drink every day. Carbonated beverages depend on the behavior of gases, foods contain acids and bases, and everyone actually eats certain rocks. (Yikes!) Cooking, eating, drinking, metabolism — all chemical processes students are involved with all the time. These features allow students to see the things we interact with every day in a new light — as chemistry. Just like many of the one-semester chemistry books you may be used to, each section in David Ball's starts with one or more Learning Objectives, which list the main points of the section. Each section ends with Key Takeaways, which are reviews of the main points of the section. Each chapter is full of examples to illustrate the key points of the materials, and each example is followed with a similar ”Test Yourself“ exercise to see if the student understands the concept. Each section ends with its own set of paired exercises to practice the material from that section, and each chapter ends with a section of ”Additional Exercises“ that are more challenging or require multiple steps or skills to answer. David took the time to treat mathematical problems in Introductory Chemistry one of two ways, either as a conversion-factor problem or as a formula problem. David believes having two basic mathematical approaches (converting and formulas) allows the text to focus on the logic of the approach and not tricks or shortcuts; which speaks to the final point about Introductory Chemistry. You'll notice that David took no shortcuts with the material in this text, his inviting writing style, concise approach, consistent presentation, and interesting pedagogy have given it some of the best peer reviews we've seen at Flat World. So, order a desk copy or dive in now to see for yourself.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on online resource 0aChemistryvTextbooks 0aSciencevTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/22zAccess online version02318nam a2200397 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050000900145050000900154100002900163245007100192250000700263264004300270264006700313264001200380300002200392336002600414337002600440338003600466341002500502490002700527505049000554520060701044542003001651546001601681588004001697650003201737650003701769710003901806856007501845OTLid0000043MnU20260518120349.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2012    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781491939369  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQA76 4aQA761 aDowney, Allen B.eauthor00aThink PythonbHow to Think Like a Computer ScientistcAllen Downey  a2e 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bGreen Tea Pressc[2012] 4c©2012.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a1 The way of the program -- 2 Variables, expressions and statements -- 3 Functions -- 4 Case study: interface design -- 5 Conditionals and recursion -- 6 Fruitful functions -- 7 Iteration -- 8 Strings -- 9 Case study: word play -- 10 Lists -- 11 Dictionaries -- 12 Tuples -- 13 Case study: data structure selection -- 14 Files -- 15 Classes and objects -- 16 Classes and functions -- 17 Classes and methods -- 18 Inheritance -- 19 The Goodies -- A Debugging -- B Analysis of Algorithms0 aThink Python is a concise introduction to software design using the Python programming language.

Do you easily give a lecture on the sympathetic nervous system, a lecture on Piaget, and a lecture on social cognition, but struggle with linking these topics together for the student? Do you feel like you are presenting a laundry list of research findings rather than an integrated set of principles and knowledge? Have you wondered how to ensure your course is relevant to your students? Introduction to Psychology utilizes the dual theme of behavior and empiricism to make psychology relevant to intro students. The author wrote this book to help students organize their thinking about psychology at a conceptual level. Five or ten years from now, he does not expect his students to remember the details of most of what he teaches them. However, he does hope that they will remember that psychology matters because it helps us understand behavior and that our knowledge of psychology is based on empirical study. This book is designed to facilitate these learning outcomes, and he has used three techniques to help focus students on behavior: Chapter Openers: Each chapter opens showcasing an interesting real world example of people who dealing with behavioral questions and who can use psychology to help them answer them. The opener is designed to draw the student into the chapter and create an interesting in learning about the topic. Psychology in Everyday Life: Each chapter contains one or two features designed to link the principles from the chapter to real-world applications in business, environment, health, law, learning, and other relevant domains. For instance, the application in Chapter 7 on Development, ”What makes good parents“ applies the concepts of parenting styles in a mini-handbook about parenting, and the application in Chapter 3 is about the difficulties that left-handed people face performing everyday tasks in a right-handed world. Research Foci: Introduction to Psychology emphasizes empiricism throughout, but without making it a distraction from the main story line. Each chapter presents two close-ups on research — well articulated and specific examples of research within the content area, each including a summary of the hypotheses, methods, results, and interpretations. This feature provides a continuous thread that reminds students of the importance of empirical research. The research foci also emphasize the fact that findings are not always predictable ahead of time (dispelling the myth of hindsight bias), and also help students understand how research really works. The author's focus on behavior and empiricism has produced, Introduction to Psychology, a text that is better organized, has fewer chapters, and is somewhat shorter than many of the leading books. Now, you don't have to believe us.

This book was written with the undergraduate levelin mind, but it’s also popular in high schools and graduate courses.We hope readers will take away three ideas from this book in addition to forming a foundationof statistical thinking and methods. • Statistics is an applied field with a wide range of practical applications.• You don’t have to be a math guru to learn from real, interesting data.• Data are messy, and statistical tools are imperfect. But, when you understand the strengthsand weaknesses of these tools, you can use them to learn about the world.1 fAttribution-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aApplied mathematicsvTextbooks 0aMathematicsvTextbooks1 aBarr, Christopher D.eauthor1 aCetinkaya-Rundel, Mineeauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/60zAccess online version03512nam a2200421 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050001100145050001000156100003000166245003200196250000700228264004300235264006000278264001200338300002200350336002600372337002600398338003600424341002500460490002700485505145700512520083801969542001602807546001602823588004002839650002302879650002302902700002802925700002302953710003902976856007503015OTLid0000061MnU20260518120349.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2022    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781951693602  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQC21.3 4aQH3011 aUrone, Paul Petereauthor00aCollege PhysicscPaul Urone  a2e 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpenStaxc[2022] 4c©2022.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a1.

They tend to focus on their studies in short intense segments between jobs, classes, and family commitments. Meanwhile, the accounting industry has endured dramatic shifts since the collapse of Enron and WorldCom, causing a renewed focus on ethical behavior in accounting. This dynamic author team designed Managerial Accounting to work within the confines of today's students' lives while delivering a modern look at managerial accounting. Managerial Accounting was written around three major themes: Ready, Reinforcement and Relevance. This book is aimed squarely at the new learning styles evident with today's students and addresses accounting industry changes as well. Ready. Your students want to be as efficient as possible in their learning. This book adopts a concise, jargon-free, and easy-to-understand approach that is ready with concise sections and concepts when the student is ready to study in a format the student wants. Key concepts are provided in short segments with bullet points and step-by-step instructions to simplify concepts. This thoughtful, step-wise approach will help your students avoid distractions and focuses attention on the big picture. Reinforcement. Managerial Accounting boasts “Review Problems” at the end of each major section or learning objective which offer practical opportunities for students to apply what they have learned. These “Review Problems” allow students to immediately reinforce what they have learned and are provided within the body of the chapter along with the solutions. Relevance. Why is managerial accounting important? Since all students perform better when they can answer the “why” question, meaningful references to companies throughout the chapters help students tie the concepts presented in each chapter to real organizations. In addition, realistic managerial scenarios present an issue that must be addressed by the management accountant. These will pique your students' interest and were designed to show how issues can be resolved using the concepts presented in the chapter. Finally, “Business in Action” features in Managerial Accounting link managerial decision-making to real business decisions to help your students complete the learning cycle from concept, to accounting decision, to real-world application. Managerial Accounting by Heisinger and Hoyle also contains a handful of other pedagogical aids to compliment your lectures and help your students come to class prepared. From a focus on decision-making, to end of chapter materials that can only be characterized as very deep and very wide, to ethics coverage, group projects and spreadsheet applications—these features allow you to teach the course you want to teach and assign the materials you like to assign.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on online resource 0aAccountingvTextbooks 0aBusinessvTextbooks 0aManagementvTextbooks1 aHoyle, Joeeauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/137zAccess online version02343nam a2200421 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050001200145050001000157100002800167245002400195250000700219264004300226264006000269264001200329300002200341336002600363337002600389338003600415341002500451490002700476505030200503520083100805542001601636546001601652588004001668650002301708650002301731700002301754700002901777710003901806856007601845OTLid0000167MnU20260518120349.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2018    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781947172517  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQH308.2 4aQH3011 aClark, Mary Anneauthor00aBiologycMary Clark  a2e 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpenStaxc[2018] 4c©2018.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aPreface -- 1.

Gaining the knowledge, abilities, and self-reflection necessary to be a good researcher helps not only in academic settings, but is invaluable in any career, and throughout one's life. The Information Literacy User's Guide will start you on this route to success. The Information Literacy User's Guide is based on two current models in information literacy: The 2011 version of The Seven Pillars Model, developed by the Society of College, National and University Libraries in the United Kingdom and the conception of information literacy as a metaliteracy, a model developed by one of this book's authors in conjunction with Thomas Mackey, Dean of the Center for Distance Learning at SUNY Empire State Col- lege.2 These core foundations ensure that the material will be relevant to today's students. The Information Literacy User's Guide introduces students to critical concepts of information literacy as defined for the information-infused and technology-rich environment in which they find themselves. This book helps students examine their roles as information creators and sharers and enables them to more effectively deploy related skills. This textbook includes relatable case studies and scenarios, many hands-on exercises, and interactive quizzes.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aEducationvTextbooks 0aEducation, HighervTextbooks1 aBobish, Gregeauthor1 aBullis, Daryleauthor1 aHecker, Jennaeauthor1 aHolden, Irinaeauthor1 aHosier, Allisoneauthor1 aJacobson, Trudieauthor1 aLoney, Toreauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/190zAccess online version03242nam a2200421 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001500109040001800124050001200142050000700154100003200161245005000193250000700243264004300250264006000293264001200353300002200365336002600387337002600413338003600439341002500475490002700500505089000527520110501417542001602522546001602538588004002554650002502594650003102619700002702650700002802677710003902705856007602744OTLid0000192MnU20260518120350.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2017    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a1947172387  aMnUbengcMnU 4aHB171.5 4aH11 aGreenlaw, Steven A.eauthor00aPrinciples of MacroeconomicscSteven Greenlaw  a3e 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpenStaxc[2017] 4c©2017.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aChapter 1: Welcome to Economics! -- Chapter 2: Choice in a World of Scarcity -- Chapter 3: Demand and Supply -- Chapter 4: Labor and Financial Markets -- Chapter 5: Elasticity -- Chapter 6: The Macroeconomic Perspective -- Chapter 7: Economic Growth -- Chapter 8: Unemployment -- Chapter 9: Inflation -- Chapter 10: The International Trade and Capital Flows -- Chapter 11: The Aggregate Demand/Aggregate Supply Model -- Chapter 12: The Keynesian Perspective -- Chapter 13: The Neoclassical Perspective -- Chapter 14: Money and Banking -- Chapter 15: Monetary Policy and Bank Regulation -- Chapter 16: Exchange Rates and International Capital Flows -- Chapter 17: Government Budgets and Fiscal Policy -- Chapter 18: The Impacts of Government Borrowing -- Chapter 19: Macroeconomic Policy Around the World -- Chapter 20: International Trade -- Chapter 21: Globalization and Protectionism0 aPrinciples of Macroeconomics 3e covers the scope and sequence of most one semester introductory macroeconomics courses. The third edition takes a balanced approach to the theory and application of macroeconomics concepts.

The third edition has been carefully and thoroughly updated to reflect current data and understanding, as well as to provide a deeper background in diverse contributors and their impacts on economic thought and analysis. For example, the third edition highlights the research and views of a broader group of economists. Brief references and deeply explored socio-political examples have also been updated to showcase the critical – and sometimes unnoticed – ties between economic developments and topics relevant to students.

At a time when all subjects seem to be valued only for their testability, this book tries to show the value of reading and studying literature, even earlier literature. It shows students, some of whom will themselves become teachers, that literature actually has something to say to them. Furthermore, it shows that literature is meant to be enjoyed, that, as the Roman poet Horace (and his Renaissance disciple Sir Philip Sidney) said, the functions of literature are to teach and to delight. The book will also be useful to teachers who want to convey their passion for literature to their students. After an introductory chapter that offers advice on how to read (and teach) literature, the book consists of a series of chapters that examine individual literary works ranging from The Iliad to Charles Dickens' Bleak House. These chapters can not substitute for reading the actual works. Rather they are intended to help students read those works. They are attempts to demystify the act of reading and to show that these works, whether they are nearly three thousand or less than two hundred years old, still have important things to say to contemporary readers.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aHumanitiesvTextbooks 0aRhetoricvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/204zAccess online version03228nam a2200421 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001500109040001800124050001100142050001000153100002600163245002800189250000700217264004300224264006000267264001200327300002200339336002600361337002600387338003600413341002500449490002700474505126400501520074901765542001602514546001602530588004002546650002502586650002302611700002802634700002902662710003902691856007602730OTLid0000219MnU20260518120350.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2019    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a1947172611  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQD31.3 4aQH3011 aFlowers, Pauleauthor00aChemistrycPaul Flowers  a2e 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpenStaxc[2019] 4c©2019.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a1.

Genre has provided a key to understanding the varying literacy cultures of regions, disciplines, professions and educational settings. Genre in a Changing World,edited by Charles Bazerman, Adair Bonini, and Débora Figueiredo,provides a wide-ranging sampler of the remarkable variety of current work. The twenty-four chapters in this volume, reflecting the work of scholars in Europe, Australasia, North and South America, were selected from more than 400 presentations at SIGET IV (the Fourth International Symposium on Genre Studies), held on the campus of UNISUL in Tubarão, Santa Catarina, Brazil in August 2007—the largest gathering on genre to that date. The chapters also represent a wide variety of approaches including rhetoric, Systemic Functional Linguistics, media and critical cultural studies, sociology, phenomenology, enunciation theory, the Geneva school of educational sequences, cognitive psychology, relevance theory, sociocultural psychology, activity theory, Gestalt psychology, and schema theory. Sections are devoted to theoretical issues, studies of genres in the professions, studies of genre and media, teaching and learning genre, and writing across the curriculum. The broad selection of material in this volume displays the full range of contemporary genre studies and sets the ground for a next generation of work.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aHumanitiesvTextbooks1 aBazerman, Charleseeditor1 aBonini, Adaireeditor1 aFigueiredo, Déboraeeditor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/305zAccess online version04013nam a2200421 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050001100145050001000156100002600166245004100192250000700233264004300240264006000283264001200343300002200355336002600377337002600403338003600429341002500465490002700490505137400517520140301891542001603294546001603310588004103326650002503367650002303392700002803415700003303443710003903476856007603515OTLid0000334MnU20260518120350.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2019    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781947172630  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQD31.3 4aQH3011 aFlowers, Pauleauthor00aChemistrybAtoms FirstcPaul Flowers  a2e 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpenStaxc[2019] 4c©2019.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aChapter 1: Essential Ideas -- Chapter 2: Atoms, Molecules, and Ions -- Chapter 3: Electronic Structure and Periodic Properties of Elements -- Chapter 4: Chemical Bonding and Molecular Geometry -- Chapter 5: Advanced Theories of Bonding -- Chapter 6: Composition of Substances and Solutions -- Chapter 7: Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions -- Chapter 8: Gases -- Chapter 9: Thermochemistry -- Chapter 10: Liquids and Solids -- Chapter 11: Solutions and Colloids -- Chapter 12: Thermodynamics -- Chapter 13: Fundamental Equilibrium Concepts -- Chapter 14: Acid-Base Equilibria -- Chapter 15: Equilibria of Other Reaction Classes -- Chapter 16: Electrochemistry -- Chapter 17: Kinetics -- Chapter 18: Representative Metals, Metalloids, and Nonmetals -- Chapter 19: Transition Metals and Coordination Chemistry -- Chapter 20: Nuclear Chemistry -- Chapter 21: Organic Chemistry -- The Periodic Table -- Essential Mathematics -- Units and Conversion Factors -- Fundamental Physical Constants -- Water Properties -- Composition of Commercial Acids and Bases -- Standard Thermodynamic Properties for Selected Substances -- Ionization Constants of Weak Acids -- Ionization Constants of Weak Bases -- Solubility Products -- Formation Constants for Complex Ions -- Standard Electrode (Half-Cell) Potentials -- Half-Lives for Several Radioactive Isotopes -- Chapter 22: Answer Key0 aChemistry: Atoms First 2e is a peer-reviewed, openly licensed introductory textbook produced through a collaborative publishing partnership between OpenStax and the University of Connecticut and UConn Undergraduate Student Government Association. This text is an atoms-first adaptation of OpenStax Chemistry 2e. The intention of “atoms-first” involves a few basic principles: first, it introduces atomic and molecular structure much earlier than the traditional approach, and it threads these themes through subsequent chapters. This approach may be chosen as a way to delay the introduction of material such as stoichiometry that students traditionally find abstract and difficult, thereby allowing students time to acclimate their study skills to chemistry. Additionally, it gives students a basis for understanding the application of quantitative principles to the chemistry that underlies the entire course. It also aims to center the study of chemistry on the atomic foundation that many will expand upon in a later course covering organic chemistry, easing that transition when the time arrives. The second edition has been revised to incorporate clearer, more current, and more dynamic explanations, while maintaining the same organization as the first edition. Substantial improvements have been made in the figures, illustrations, and example exercises that support the text narrative.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on online resource 0aChemistryvTextbooks 0aSciencevTextbooks1 aNeth, Edward J.eauthor1 aRobinson, William R.eauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/334zAccess online version02553nam a2200409 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001000127050001100137050001000148100002900158245006800187264004300255264008300298264001200381300002200393336002600415337002600441338003600467341002800503490002700531505048000558520078001038542003001818546001601848588004101864650004401905650002601949650002401975650002901999710003902028856007602067OTLid0000360MnU20260518021001.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2016    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aP94.7 4aPE1408 4aP91.31 aRoberts, Jasmineeauthor00aWriting for Strategic Communication IndustriescJasmine Roberts 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOhio State University Librariesc[2016] 4c©2016.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aChapter 1: Defining Strategic Communication -- Chapter 2: Media Writing--Conventions, Culture, and Style -- Chapter 3: Strategic Communication Ethics -- Chapter 4: News Value -- Chapter 5: News Writing Basics -- Chapter 6: Feature Writing -- Chapter 7: Public Relations Industry -- Chapter 8: Media Relations -- Chapter 9: Public Relations Writing -- Chapter 10: Social Media--Uses and Messaging -- Chapter 11: Advertising Industry -- Chapter 12: Creating a Writing Portfolio0 aGood writing skills are important in today's competitive work environment.

As a beginner's guide, it has been structured to condense the most important information into the smallest space and present that information in the most accessible way. The chapters offer a broad sweep of the basic components of International Relations and the key contemporary issues that concern the discipline. The narrative arc forms a complete circle, taking readers from no knowledge to competency. The journey starts by examining how the international system was formed and ends by reflecting that International Relations is always adapting to events and is therefore a never-ending journey of discovery. Unlike typical textbooks, there are no boxes, charts, pictures or exercises. The philosophy underpinning this book is that these things can be a distraction. This book, like others in the E-IR Foundations series, is designed to capture attention with an engaging narrative. The chapters are short, with simple paragraphs and clear sentences placing the reader inside crucial issues and debates so they can understand how things work, and where they fit in the world around them.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on online resource 0aGeographyvTextbooks 0aReligionvTextbooks 0aPolitical SciencevTextbooks 0aSocial sciencesvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/448zAccess online version02652nam a2200385 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050000900145050000900154100003000163245008000193264004300273264004700316264001200363300002200375336002600397337002600423338003600449341002500485490002700510505066100537520079801198542003001996546001602026588004002042650003202082650003702114710003902151856007602190OTLid0000453MnU20260518120351.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2014    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781593275846  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQA76 4aQA761 aHaverbeke, Marijneauthor00aEloquent JavaScriptbA Modern Introduction to ProgrammingcMarijn Haverbeke 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aSan Francisco, CAbNo Starch Pressc[2014] 4c©2014.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aIntroduction -- Part 1: Language -- 1 Values, Types, and Operators -- 2 Program Structure -- 3 Functions -- 4 Data Structures: Object and Arrays -- 5 Higher-Order Functions -- 6 The Secret Life of Objects -- 7 Project: A Robot -- 8 Bugs and Errors -- 9 Regular Expressions -- 10 Modules -- 11 Asynchronous Programming -- 12 Project: A Programming Language -- Part 2: Browser -- 13 JavaScript and the Browser -- 14 The Document Object Model -- 15 Handling Events -- 16 Project: A Platform Game -- 17 Drawing on Canvas -- 18 HTTP and Forms -- 19 Project: A Pixel Art Editor -- Part 3: Node -- 20 Node.js -- 21 Project: Skill-Sharing Website -- Exercise Hints0 aJavaScript lies at the heart of almost every modern web application, from social apps like Twitter to browser-based game frameworks like Phaser and Babylon. Though simple for beginners to pick up and play with, JavaScript is a flexible, complex language that you can use to build full-scale applications. This much anticipated and thoroughly revised third edition of Eloquent JavaScript dives deep into the JavaScript language to show you how to write beautiful, effective code. It has been updated to reflect the current state of Java¬Script and web browsers and includes brand-new material on features like class notation, arrow functions, iterators, async functions, template strings, and block scope. A host of new exercises have also been added to test your skills and keep you on track.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aComputer SciencevTextbooks 0aProgramming LanguagesvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/453zAccess online version03376nam a2200445 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050001200145050001100157050000700168100002600175245006700201264004300268264005000311264001200361300002200373336002600395337002600421338003600447341002800483490002700511505149900538520052102037542001602558546001602574588004002590650002502630650004402655650003102699700002902730700002602759700003002785710003902815856007602854OTLid0000461MnU20260518021009.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2017    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781945764028  aMnUbengcMnU 4aHB171.5 4aHQ1101 4aH11 aKang, Milianneauthor00aIntroduction to Women, Gender, Sexuality StudiescMiliann Kang 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aAmherst, MassachusettsbUMass Amherstc[2017] 4c©2017.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aUnit I: An Introduction to Women, Gender, Sexuality Studies: Grounding Theoretical Frameworks and Concepts -- Critical Introduction to the Field -- Theorizing Lived Experiences -- Identity Terms -- Conceptualizing Structures of Power -- Social Constructionism -- Intersectionality -- References: Unit I -- Unit II: Challenging Binary Systems and Constructions of Difference -- Introduction: Binary Systems -- The Sex/Gender/Sexuality System -- Gender and Sex - Transgender and Intersex -- Sexualities -- Masculinities -- Race -- Class -- Alternatives to Binary Systems -- References: Unit II -- Unit III: Institutions, Culture, and Structures -- Introduction: Institutions, Cultures, and Structures -- The Family -- Media -- Medicine, Health, and Reproductive Justice -- The State, Law, and the Prison System -- Intersecting Institutions Case Study: The Struggle to End Gendered Violence and Violence Against Women -- References: Unit III -- Unit IV: Gender and Work in the Global Economy -- Introduction: Gender and Work in the Global Economy -- Gender and Work in the US -- Gender and the US Welfare State -- Transnational Production and Globalization -- Racialized, Gendered, and Sexualized Labor in the Global Economy -- References: Unit IV -- Unit V: Historical and Contemporary Feminist Social Movements -- Introduction: Feminist Movements -- 19th Century Feminist Movements -- Early to Late 20th Century Feminist Movements -- Third Wave and Queer Feminist Movements -- References: Unit V0 aThis textbook introduces key feminist concepts and analytical frameworks used in the interdisciplinary Women, Gender, Sexualities field.

STEP is an examination used by Cambridge Colleges for conditional offers in mathematics. They are also used by some other UK universities and many mathematics departments recommend that their applicants practice on the past papers even if they do not take the examination. Advanced Problems in Mathematics bridges the gap between school and university mathematics, and prepares students for an undergraduate mathematics course. The questions analysed in this book are all based on past STEP questions and each question is followed by a comment and a full solution. The comments direct the reader’s attention to key points and put the question in its true mathematical context. The solutions point students to the methodology required to address advanced mathematical problems critically and independently.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aMathematicsvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/476zAccess online version03364nam a2200373 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050000800145100002900153245005000182264004300232264007300275264001200348300002200360336002600382337002600408338003600434341002800470490002700498505137700525520084901902542001602751546001602767588004002783650002602823650002602849710003902875856007602914OTLid0000491MnU20260518020940.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2017    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9780996150224  aMnUbengcMnU 4aB721 aKnachel, Mattheweauthor00aFundamental Methods of LogiccMatthew Knachel 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bA.T.

Students will learn how to form a research question, search existing literature, synthesize results and write the review. The book contains examples, checklists, supplementary materials, and additional resources. Literature Reviews for Education and Nursing Graduate Students is written by two librarians with expertise guiding students through research and writing assignments, and is openly licensed.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aNursingvTextbooks 0aMedicinevTextbooks1 aPhelps, Sue F.eauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/521zAccess online version02100nam a2200397 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001000127050000700137100002600144245006800170250001900238264004300257264007100300264001200371300002200383336002600405337002600431338003600457341002500493490002700518505038200545520046800927542004101395546001601436588004001452650002601492650003101518700003801549710003901587856007601626OTLid0000540MnU20260518021034.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2022    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aBF121 4aH11 aLally, Marthaeauthor00aLifespan DevelopmentbA Psychological PerspectivecMartha Lally  aFourth Edition 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aGrayslake, IllinoisbMartha Lally, Suzanne Valentine-Frenchc2023. 4c©2022.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aChapter 1: Introduction to Lifespan Development -- Chapter 2: Heredity, Prenatal Development, and Birth -- Chapter 3: Infancy and Toddlerhood -- Chapter 4: Early Childhood -- Chapter 5: Middle and Late Childhood -- Chapter 6: Adolescence -- Chapter 7: Emerging and Established Adulthood -- Chapter 8: Middle Adulthood -- Chapter 9: Late Adulthood -- Chapter 10: Death and Dying0 aDevelopmental Psychology, also known as Human Development or Lifespan Development, is the scientific study of ways in which people change, as well as stay the same, from conception to death.

The first half of the book covers the theories that are most commonly taught in undergraduate programmes. The book then expands to present emerging approaches and offer wider perspectives. Each chapter sets out the basics of a theory whilst also applying it to a real-world event or issue, creating a lively, readable and relevant guide that will help students to see not only what theories are – but why they matter.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on online resource 0aGeographyvTextbooks 0aPolitical SciencevTextbooks 0aSocial sciencesvTextbooks1 aMcGlinchey, Stepheneeditor1 aWalters, Rosieeeditor1 aScheinpflug, Christianeeditor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/544zAccess online version02307nam a2200409 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050000800145100003200153245006300185250001600248264004300264264003900307264001200346300002200358336002600380337002600406338003600432341002500468490002700493505061800520520042801138542004101566546001601607588004001623650003801663650002601701700003001727700002501757710003901782856007601821OTLid0000599MnU20260518120352.0m     o  d s      cr            180907s2022    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781927565506  aMnUbengcMnU 4aP511 aAnderson, Catherineeauthor00aEssentials of Linguistics, 2nd EditioncCatherine Anderson  a2nd Edition 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aToronto, ONbeCampusOntarioc2022. 4c©2022.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aAbout the Authors -- Acknowledgements -- A Note to Instructors -- Chapter 1: Human Language and Language Science -- Chapter 2: Language, Power, and Privilege -- Chapter 3: Phonetics -- Chapter 4: Phonology -- Chapter 5: Morphology -- Chapter 6: Syntax -- Chapter 7: Semantics -- Chapter 8: Pragmatics -- Chapter 9: Reclaiming Indigenous Languages -- Chapter 10: Language Variation and Change -- Chapter 11: Child Language Acquisition -- Chapter 12: Adult Language Learning -- [In progress] Chapter 13: Psycholinguistics and Neurolinguistics -- Appendix 1: PSRs and Flat Tree Structures -- Check Yourself Questions0 aThis Second Edition of Essentials of Linguistics is considerably revised and expanded, including several new chapters, diverse language examples from signed and spoken languages, enhanced accessibility features, and an orientation towards equity and justice.

The following chapters tap into the deep experience of practitioners who represent a meaningful cross section of higher education institutions in North America. It is our hope that the examples and discussions presented by our authors will facilitate connections among practitioners, foster the development of best practices for OER adoption and creation, and more importantly, lay a foundation for novel, educational excellence.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aCommunicationvTextbooks1 aLashley, Jonathaneauthor1 aLangley, Anneeauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/652zAccess online version02480nam a2200373 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050001100145050001100156245002900167264004300196264006000239264001200299300002200311336002600333337002600359338003600385341002500421490002700446505076200473520063401235542001601869546001601885588004001901650002401941650002601965710003901991856007602030OTLid0000693MnU20260518120352.0m     o  d s      cr            190411s2019    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9780998625775  aMnUbengcMnU 4aHF5001 4aHD30.400aPrinciples of Management 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpenStaxc[2019] 4c©2019.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a1.

This is a traditional approach to management using the leading, planning, organizing, and controlling approach. Management is a broad business discipline, and the Principles of Management course covers many management areas such as human resource management and strategic management, as well behavioral areas such as motivation. No one individual can be an expert in all areas of management, so an additional benefit of this text is that specialists in a variety of areas have authored individual chapters.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aBusinessvTextbooks 0aManagementvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/693zAccess online version02679nam a2200373 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050001100145050001100156245006000167264004300227264006000270264001200330300002200342336002600364337002600390338003600416341002500452490002700477505054000504520099801044542004102042546001602083588004102099650002402140650002602164710003902190856007602229OTLid0000694MnU20260518120352.0m     o  d s      cr            190411s2019    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781947172678  aMnUbengcMnU 4aHF5001 4aHF562500aPrinciples of AccountingnVolume 1 Financial Accounting 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpenStaxc[2019] 4c©2019.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a1.

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.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aComputer SciencevTextbooks1 aPeterson, Larryeauthor1 aDavie, Bruceeauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/771zAccess online version02287nam a2200373 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050000800145245003800153264004300191264005300234264001200287300002200299336002600321337002600347338003600373341002500409490002700434505037700461520080100838542002701639546001601666588004001682650002301722700002901745700002401774710003901798856007601837OTLid0000777MnU20260518120352.0m     o  d s      cr            191005s2019    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781503608139  aMnUbengcMnU 4aD2004aThe American Yawp Vol. IbTo 1877 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aPalo Alto, CAbStanford University Pressc[2019] 4c©2019.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a1.

The key assumptions are explained and it is shown how the respective theory treats arguments and adjuncts, the active/passive alternation, local reorderings, verb placement, and fronting of constituents over long distances. The analyses are explained with German as the object language. The second part of the book compares these approaches with respect to their predictions regarding language acquisition and psycholinguistic plausibility. The nativism hypothesis, which assumes that humans posses genetically determined innate language-specific knowledge, is critically examined and alternative models of language acquisition are discussed. The second part then addresses controversial issues of current theory building such as the question of flat or binary branching structures being more appropriate, the question whether constructions should be treated on the phrasal or the lexical level, and the question whether abstract, non-visible entities should play a role in syntactic analyses. It is shown that the analyses suggested in the respective frameworks are often translatable into each other. The book closes with a chapter showing how properties common to all languages or to certain classes of languages can be captured.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aLinguisticsvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/803zAccess online version02108nam a2200373 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050000900127050001000136100003000146245008400176264004300260264007000303264001200373300002200385336002600407337002600433338003600459341002800495490002700523505039700550520052700947542003001474546001601504588004101520650003301561650002501594710003901619856007601658OTLid0000822MnU20260518020653.0m     o  d s      cr            200419s2020    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aJA71 4aHM5861 aDavies, Christineeauthor02aA Quick Guide to Quantitative Research in the Social SciencescChristine Davies 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aCarmarthen, WalesbUniversity of Wales Trinity Saint Davidc2021. 4c©2020.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aSection 1: What will this resource do for you? -- Section 2: Why are you thinking about numbers?

Biochemistry is a relatively young science, but its rate of growth has been truly impressive. The rapid pace of discoveries, which shows no sign of slowing, is reflected in the steady increase in the size of biochemistry textbooks. Growing faster than the size of biochemistry books have been the skyrocketing costs of higher education and the even faster rising costs of college textbooks. These unfortunate realities have created a situation where the costs of going to college are beyond the means of increasing numbers of students.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aBiologyvTextbooks 0aChemistryvTextbooks1 aAhern, Kevineauthor1 aRajagopal, Indiraeauthor1 aTan, Taralyneauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/866zAccess online version01772nam a2200397 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068020001800109040001800127050001200145050001200157050001000169245002500179264004300204264003700247264001200284300002200296336002600318337002600344338003600370341002800406490002700434505026800461520038300729542001601112546001601128588004001144650002301184650002801207650002401235710003901259856007601298OTLid0000875MnU20260518021055.0m     o  d s      cr            200707s2020    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  a9781734914115  aMnUbengcMnU 4aRT1-120 4aRS1-441 4aRA44000aNursing Pharmacology 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aMadison, WIbWisTech Openc2020. 4c©2020.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aI.

The textbook is unique in that it explicitly connects the dynamics of open coasts and tidal basins; not only is the interaction between open coasts and tidal basins of basic importance for the evolution of most coastal systems, but describing the similarities between their physical processes is highly instructive as well. This textbook emphasizes these similarities to the benefit of understanding shared processes such as nonlinearities in flow and sediment transport. Some prior knowledge with respect to the dynamics of flow, waves and sediment transport is recommended.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aEarth SciencesvTextbooks 0aPhysicsvTextbooks 0aSciencevTextbooks1 aBosboom, Juditheauthor1 aStive, Marcel J.F.eauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/969zAccess online version01804nam a2200385 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001600127050001100143050000800154100002700162245005600189264004300245264004400288264001200332300002200344336002600366337002600392338003600418341002500454490002700479505027100506520039200777542003001169546001601199588004001215650002101255650002701276710003901303856007601342OTLid0000970MnU20260518120353.0m     o  d s      cr            210213s2020    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQA299.6-433 4aQA37.3 4aQA11 aAxler, Sheldoneauthor00aMeasure, Integration & Real AnalysiscSheldon Axler 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aSan Francisco, CAbSheldon Axlerc2021. 4c©2020.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a1 Riemann Integration -- 2 Measures -- 3 Integration -- 4 Differentiation -- 5 Product Measures -- 6 Banach Spaces -- 7 Lp Spaces -- 8 Hilbert Spaces -- 9 Real and Complex Measures -- 10 Linear Maps on Hilbert Spaces -- 11 Fourier Analysis -- 12 Probability Measures0 aThis book seeks to provide students with a deep understanding of the definitions, examples, theorems, and proofs related to measure, integration, and real analysis.

This course satisfies the Early Childhood Unified requirements in the state of Kansas for a teaching license Birth to Grade 3. Most people agree that early childhood includes the period from infancy until eight years of age, characterized by rapid and complex growth in physical, cognitive, and social domains. Math skills must be taught in early childhood. Children should be provided a foundation to succeed in elementary school and beyond. Teachers should focus lessons in early childhood around the basic skills that will help to advance future mathematics. From preschool to the end of elementary school, children are setting the foundation for future life skills. Learning mathematics is “a ‘natural’ and developmentally appropriate activity for young children” (Ginsberg, Lee, and Boyd, 2008). Through their everyday interactions with the world, many children develop informal concepts about space, quantity, size, patterns, and operations. Unfortunately, not all children have the same opportunities to build these informal and foundational concepts of mathematics in their day-to-day lives (Sherman-LeVos, 2010). Young children are naturally curious, and the best time to begin mathematics is at a time while the young child’s brain is rapidly developing. Mathematics in early childhood helps children develop critical thinking and reasoning skills early on and it’s the key to the foundation for success in their formal schooling years.1 fAttribution  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aGeneral educationvTextbooks 0aEducationvTextbooks 0aEarly ChildhoodvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1142zAccess online version03109nam a2200409 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001000127050000700137245006500144264004300209264006600252264001200318300002200330336002600352337002600378338003600404341002800440490002700468505120700495520063801702542001602340546001602356588004002372650002602412650003102438700003302469700002802502700002502530700002802555710003902583856007702622OTLid0001149MnU20260518020853.0m     o  d s      cr            220311s2022    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aBF121 4aH100aCase Studies in Community Psychology PracticebA Global Lens 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bRebus Communityc2022. 4c©2022.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aI.

Therefore, some chapters may share overlapping content, but the content is discussed in unique ways. For example, Chapters 2, 3, 4, and 5 focus on physical activity and exercise behavior. While content in these chapters is related, it is not redundant. To fully understand the complex world of exercise and sport psychology, students are encouraged to engage with diverse perspectives from many authors.Chapters also contain learning exercises to prompt students and instructors to engage with the material on a deeper level. For effective review, students and instructors are encouraged to complete these learning exercises and discuss responses together.The majority of this textbook was written during the global COVID-19 pandemic. We are tremendously grateful for all of the efforts and expertise of the many contributors to this project. Despite the challenges of teaching, researching, and surviving in the pandemic, the authors persisted.

This concept applies to many types of innovation such as products, processes, services, technologies, and business models. Companies use innovation as a means to gain a competitive advantage and bring value to business stakeholders. This book introduces business innovation, from incremental innovation such as enhancing the performance of an existing product, service, or process, to radical or disruptive innovation such as one that has a significant impact on a market. The content examines how leaders foster a culture of innovation, how companies turn creativity into innovation, and how innovation transforms not only organizations but economies as well.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aBusinessvTextbooks 0aEntrepreneurshipvTextbooks 0aMarketingvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1216zAccess online version02627nam a2200385 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001100127050001100138100002700149245004500176250001600221264004300237264003900280264001200319300002200331336002600353337002600379338003600405341002500441490002700466505061700493520086901110542004101979546001602020588004002036650002402076650002502100710003902125856007702164OTLid0001217MnU20260518120354.0m     o  d s      cr            220727s2024    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aHF5001 4aHF54151 aShields, Kerrieauthor00aCustomer Centric StrategycKerri Shields  a2nd Edition 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aToronto, ONbeCampusOntarioc2025. 4c©2024.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aIntroduction -- Chapter 1: Defining Customer Centricity -- Chapter 2: Being a Customer Service Representative (CSR) -- Chapter 3: Managing a Customer Service Team -- Chapter 4: Working in a Customer Contact Center -- Chapter 5: Managing a Customer Contact Center -- Chapter 6: Using Contact Center Technology to Improve Customer Experience -- Chapter 7: Designing Products, Services, and Processes with Customers in Mind -- Chapter 8: Using Design Thinking to Improve Customer Experience -- Chapter 9: Building Strong Customer Relationships -- Chapter 10: Leading a Customer Centric Strategy -- Glossary of Terms0 aCustomer centricity is about organizational transformation making the customer the focus for business decisions, processes, product development, services, and procedures. Some companies purport to be customer centric but they fall short in connecting this concept throughout all functional areas of the business. While it is important to offer superb customer service, being customer centric is far more than that. It's about mapping the customer journey to discover customer needs and wants, what's working and what is not, then taking action to improve the customer experience. Customer loyalty is built through providing exceptional customer experiences. This in turn increases revenues through positive company image, referrals, and increased customer lifetime value.

Early literacy includes reading, writing, and language development. Writing includes any early writing attempts and pre-writing behaviors just as reading includes any early reading attempts and recognition of symbols and sounds. Language also includes listening and speaking (oral language) and the use of gestures and signs to communicate. The term oral language is commonly used to describe early language development separately from reading and writing. This text assumes oral language is a component of language and embraces the broader term to underscore the communication practices outside of listening and speaking. For example, some children use sign language or a picture board. For these reasons, the textbook will focus on language development in its totality, including oral language. This textbook is focused on birth to age 5 because early literacy development is crucial for future learning and development.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aEducationvTextbooks 0aEarly ChildhoodvTextbooks1 aLa Croix, Leslieeauthor1 aMiller, Sara E.eauthor1 aAustin, Kimberly Sanderseauthor1 aKidd, Julie K.eauthor1 aMedina, Melanieeeditor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1358zAccess online version02119nam a2200397 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050000900127050000900136100002600145245007500171250003100246264004300277264003300320264001200353300002200365336002600387337002600413338003600439341002800475490002700503505041200530520047200942542004101414546001601455588004001471650003201511650003801543700002401581710003901605856007701644OTLid0001360MnU20260518020751.0m     o  d s      cr            230313s2022    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQA76 4aQA761 aChacon, Scotteauthor00aPro GitbEverything You Need to Know About Git (English)cScott Chacon  aVersion 2.1.359-2-g27002dd 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aNew York, NYbApressc[2022] 4c©2022.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aLicense -- Preface by Scott Chacon -- Preface by Ben Straub -- Dedications -- Contributors -- Introduction -- Getting Started -- Git Basics -- Git Branching -- Git on the Server -- Distributed Git -- GitHub -- Git Tools -- Customizing Git -- Git and Other Systems -- Git Internals -- Appendix A: Git in Other Environment -- Appendix B: Embedding Git in your Applications -- Appendix C: Git Commands -- Index0 aThe entire Pro Git book, written by Scott Chacon and Ben Straub and published by Apress, is available here.

Periodic Table -- Answer Key0 aJohn McMurry's Organic Chemistry is renowned as the most clearly written book available for organic chemistry. In John McMurry's words, "I wrote this book because I love writing. I get great pleasure and satisfaction from taking a complicated subject, turning it around until I see it clearly from a new angle, and then explaining it in simple words." In Organic Chemistry: A Tenth Edition from OpenStax, McMurry continues this tradition while updating scientific discoveries, highlighting new applications, scrutinizing every piece of art, and providing example problems to assist students. Organic Chemistry: A Tenth Edition continues to meet the scope and sequence of a two-semester organic chemistry course that follows a functional group approach. A highlighted list of changes along with a detailed table of contents and ancillary descriptions can be found on the Instructor and Student resources sections of this page. John McMurry decided to publish Organic Chemistry: A Tenth Edition under an open license as a tribute to his son, Peter McMurry, who passed away from cystic fibrosis in December 2019.

The book takes a more conceptual approach that highlights how scientists study cells, and how to analyze and interpret experimental results. Rather than focusing primarily on historical experiments that were key to our understanding of cells, the book explores a range of more modern experimental techniques so that students can begin to understand how cells are studied now, in the 21st century. The book includes over 200 newly created illustrations and animations, that were specifically designed for this book, as well as review questions at the end of each chapter, to help students explore and understand the material.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aBiologyvTextbooks 0aSciencevTextbooks1 aYoung, Robineauthor1 aNg-Cornish, Heathereillustrator2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1578zAccess online version02184nam a2200349 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050000700127100003000134245008000164264004300244264005900287264001200346300002200358336002600380337002600406338003600432341002800468490002700496505090200523520016401425542004101589546001601630588004101646650003101687710003901718856007701757OTLid0001589MnU20260522145808.0m     o  d s      cr            240303s2020    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aH11 aSheppard, Valerieeauthor00aResearch Methods for the Social SciencesbAn IntroductioncValerie Sheppard 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bBCcampusc2024. 4c©2020.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aAccessibility Statement -- Preface -- About This Book -- Chapter 1: Introduction to Research Methods -- Chapter 2: Ethics in Research -- Chapter 3: Developing a Research Question -- Chapter 4: Measurement and Units of Analysis -- Chapter 5: The Literature Review -- Chapter 6: Data Collection Strategies -- Chapter 7: Sampling Techniques -- Chapter 8: Data Collection Methods: Survey Research -- Chapter 9: Analysis Of Survey Data -- Chapter 10: Qualitative Data Collection & Analysis Methods -- Chapter 11: Quantitative Interview Techniques & Considerations -- Chapter 12: Field Research: A Qualitative Research Technique -- Chapter 13: Unobtrusive Research: Qualitative And Quantitative Approaches -- Chapter 14: The Research Proposal -- Chapter 15: Sharing Your Research -- Chapter 16: Reading and Understanding Social Research -- Chapter 17: Research Methods in the Real World -- List of Links0 aThis textbook provides a broad overview of research methods utilized in sociology.

Qualitative research designs are diverse and each design has a different focus that will inform the approach undertaken and the results that are generated. The aim is to move beyond the “what” of qualitative research to the “how”, by (1) outlining key qualitative research designs for health and social care research – descriptive, phenomenology, action research, case study, ethnography, and grounded theory; (2) a decision tool of how to select the appropriate design based on a guiding prompting question, the research question and available resources, time and expertise; (3) an overview of mixed methods research and qualitative research in evaluation studies; (4) a practical guide to data collection and analysis; (5) providing examples of qualitative research to illustrate the scope and opportunities; and (6) tips on communicating qualitative research.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aEducationvTextbooks 0aEducation, HighervTextbooks 0aMedicinevTextbooks1 aTsindos, Tesseauthor1 aBerkovic, Danielleeauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1607zAccess online version02533nam a2200385 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001300127050000700140245005200147264004300199264002900242264001200271300002200283336002600305337002600331338003600357341002800393490002700421505045500448520091900903542004101822546001601863588004001879650002501919650003101944700002901975700002702004710003902031856007702070OTLid0001621MnU20260518021031.0m     o  d s      cr            240316s2023    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aLB1139.2 4aL704aThe Whole ChildbDevelopment in the Early Years 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aBoston, MAbROTELc2024. 4c©2023.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aPreface -- Chapter One - Perspectives on Early Childhood -- Chapter Two - Theorists and Theories of Development -- Chapter Three - Domains in Development -- Chapter Four - Brain Development from Conception to Age 8 -- Chapter Five - Prenatal Development and Birth -- Chapter Six - Infancy -- Chapter Seven - Toddlers (15 Months to 3 Years) -- Chapter Eight - Early Childhood Development -- Chapter Nine - School Age (5 Years to 8 Years) -- Conclusion0 aThe Whole Child is a textbook that gives an overview of development, beginning in the mother’s womb through the age of eight. It starts with a look at perspectives of early childhood, including how children have been viewed historically as well as cross-culturally. There is a complete overview of the important theorists that have helped to deepen and bring clarity to how children develop. These theories include psychodynamic, behavioral, social cognitive theory, cognitive theory, humanistic, multiple intelligence, growth mindset, and Bloom’s taxonomy. Understanding the implications of each theory is important foundational knowledge for the study of development. Developmental domains at each stage is examined alongside important milestones. The biology of the brain is given important consideration. Some of the many factors that influence a young child’s development are also included in this text.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aEducationvTextbooks 0aEarly ChildhoodvTextbooks1 aBudzyna, Deirdreeauthor1 aBuckley, Doriseauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1621zAccess online version03476nam a2200361 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050000700127245009600134264004300230264002900273264001200302300002200314336002600336337002600362338003600388341002800424490002700452505114100479520119501620542004102815546001602856588004002872650003102912700002902943700002602972710003902998856007703037OTLid0001624MnU20260518020913.0m     o  d s      cr            240316s2023    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aH100aSocial Work Practice and Disability CommunitiesbAn Intersectional Anti-Oppressive Approach 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aBoston, MAbROTELc2024. 4c©2023.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aIntroduction -- Chapter 1 - Disability Social Work Concepts and Principles -- Chapter 2 - A Model for Social Work Practice with Disability Communities: Connecting Critical -- Chapter 3 - Major Disability Policies in the United States -- Chapter 4 - Health and Personal Care Services for the Disability Community -- Chapter 5 - Disability Justice in Education and Transition to Adulthood -- Chapter 6 - An Overview of Disabled Children and Parents in the Family Policing System -- Chapter 7 - Gender, Gender Identity, Gender Expression, and Disability -- Chapter 8 - Sexual Orientation, Sexuality, and the Disability Community -- Chapter 9 - Mental Health and Addictions in Disability Communities -- Chapter 10 - Employment, Housing, Poverty and the Disability Community -- Chapter 11 - Disability and the Criminal Legal System -- Chapter 12 - Aging, End-of-Life, and the Disability Community -- Chapter 13 - Violence Against People with Disabilities: Implications for Practice -- Chapter 14 - An Intersectional Analysis of Disability Resistance Movements: Looking Back to Look Forward -- Chapter Authour Biographies -- Grant Information0 aDesigned as a main textbook for social work courses at the bachelor’s and master’s level or for social work practitioners in the field, this work moves beyond a traditional medicalized and segregated approach (i.e., chapters organized around impairments) to the exploration of disability-specific populations, instead taking a more intersectional approach in discussing specific service areas and practice issues while weaving in stories about the lived experiences of disabled people with a range of social identities. These issues include parenting, mass incarceration, ableism, aging, and employment, among many others. A key goal of this book is to introduce an intersectionality-informed and critically culturally competent approach to anti-oppressive social work practice with disabled people, primarily in the United States. To do this, we present an innovative practice model for social workers to use in their work with disabled people and communities, which is incorporated throughout the book in a variety of practice considerations. The main themes woven throughout our practice model are intersectionality theory, critical cultural competence, and anti-oppressive practice.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aSocial sciencesvTextbooks1 aSlayter, Elspetheauthor1 aJohnson, Lisaeauthor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1624zAccess online version02254nam a2200433 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001200127050001000139050001000149050000700159245004400166264004300210264002900253264001200282300002200294336002600316337002600342338003600368341002800404490002700432505057000459520041401029542004101443546001601484588004001500650002301540650002301563650002601586650003101612700002901643700003201672710003901704856007701743OTLid0001626MnU20260518021031.0m     o  d s      cr            240316s2024    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQH308.2 4aBF121 4aQH301 4aH100aBiological Psychology [Revised Edition] 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1aBoston, MAbROTELc2024. 4c©2024.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aFront Matter -- Chapter 1: Introduction to Biological Psychology -- Chapter 2: The Brain and Nervous System -- Chapter 3: Neurons -- Chapter 4: Research Methods in Biological Psychology -- Chapter 5: Psychopharmacology -- Chapter 6: Hormones and Behavior -- Chapter 7: Development of the Brain and Nervous System -- Chapter 8: Genetics and Epigenetics in Psychology -- Chapter 9: Emotion and Affective Neuroscience -- Chapter 10: Brain Damage, Neurodegeneration, and Neurological Diseases -- Chapter 11: Biopsychology of Psychological Disorders -- Grant Information0 aBiological psychology is the study of the biological bases of behavior and mental processes.

The fourth edition gives an expanded treatment of the singular value decomposition and its consequences. It includes a new chapter on multilinear algebra, treating bilinear forms, quadratic forms, tensor products, and an approach to determinants via alternating multilinear forms. This new edition also increases the use of the minimal polynomial to provide cleaner proofs of multiple results. Also, over 250 new exercises have been added. The novel approach taken here banishes determinants to the end of the book. The text focuses on the central goal of linear algebra: understanding the structure of linear operators on finite-dimensional vector spaces. The author has taken unusual care to motivate concepts and simplify proofs. A variety of interesting exercises in each chapter helps students understand and manipulate the objects of linear algebra. Beautiful formatting creates pages with an unusually student-friendly appearance in both print and electronic versions. No prerequisites are assumed other than the usual demand for suitable mathematical maturity. The text starts by discussing vector spaces, linear independence, span, basis, and dimension. The book then deals with linear maps, eigenvalues, and eigenvectors. Inner-product spaces are introduced, leading to the finite-dimensional spectral theorem and its consequences. Generalized eigenvectors are then used to provide insight into the structure of a linear operator.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aAlgebravTextbooks 0aMathematicsvTextbooks2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1772zAccess online version02819nam a2200385 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001400127050000800141245008600149264004300235264007100278264001200349300002200361336002600383337002600409338003600435341002800471490002700499505053500526520106201061542002702123546001602150588004002166650002702206650002602233700003002259700002802289710003902317856007702356OTLid0001785MnU20260518020917.0m     o  d s      cr            250213s2025    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQA273-280 4aQA100aLearning Statistics with jamovibA Tutorial for Beginners in Statistical Analysis 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bOpen Book Publishersc2025. 4c©2025.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbunknown2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 aPreface -- Why do we learn statistics -- A brief introduction to research design -- Getting started with jamovi -- Descriptive statistics -- Drawing graphs -- Pragmatic matters -- Introduction to probability -- Estimating unknown quantities from a sample -- Hypothesis testing -- Categorical data analysis -- Comparing two means -- Correlation and linear regression -- Comparing several means (one-way ANOVA) -- Factorial ANOVA -- Factor Analysis -- Bayesian statistics -- Epilogue -- References -- Chapter notes -- About the team0 aBased on Danielle Navarro’s widely acclaimed and prize-winning book Learning Statistics with R, this elegantly designed textbook offers undergraduate students a thorough and accessible introduction to jamovi, as well as how to get to grips with statistics and data manipulation.

As artificial intelligence transforms teaching and learning, they are assuming even greater importance. Cases provide the opportunity to learn from real-life scenarios, equipping students with the analytical skills required to critically examine data, apply theory, and interpret complex situations in what is an increasingly noisy and uncertain world. Navigating the 21st Century Business World: Case Studies in Management is a fully open access collection of management cases, featuring examples from the health sector, media, oil and gas industries, fast fashion, financial services, and the public sector. Written by LSE academics and tested in the classroom, the case studies in this book challenge students to evaluate classic issues of management, such as corporate governance and leadership, and to address contemporary dilemmas, from considering a company’s responsibilities in the face of man-made climate change to how to create inclusive workforces. Each case details the core dilemmas raised and includes questions for students to consider when preparing the case. Academics and industry trainers can use the collection to make their lessons more hands-on and to enhance their curriculum. The case studies provide practical examples of management decision-making to spark thought-provoking discussions for university students, experienced executives looking to improve their leadership skills, and entrepreneurs seeking a competitive edge.1 fAttribution-NonCommercial  aIn English.0 aDescription based on print resource 0aBusinessvTextbooks 0aManagementvTextbooks1 aSallai, Dorottyaeeditor1 aPepper, Alexandereeditor2 aOpen Textbook Libraryedistributor40uhttps://open.umn.edu/opentextbooks/textbooks/1863zAccess online version02087nam a2200373 i 4500001001300000003000400013005001700017006001900034007001500053008004100068040001800109050001200127050001000139100002700149245005500176264004300231264007500274264001200349300002200361336002600383337002600409338003600435341002500471490002700496505041800523520051300941542004101454546001601495588004001511650002301551650002301574710003901597856007701636OTLid0001965MnU20260518120357.0m     o  d s      cr            260202s2026    mnu     o     0   0 eng d  aMnUbengcMnU 4aQH308.2 4aQH3011 aRobson, Louiseeauthor00aEvaluating Renal Function in HumanscLouise Robson 2aMinneapolis, MNbOpen Textbook Library 1a[Place of publication not identified]bUniversity of Sheffieldc[2026] 4c©2026.  a1 online resource  atextbtxt2rdacontent  acomputerbc2rdamedia  aonline resourcebcr2rdacarrier0 atextualbnone2sapdv0 aOpen textbook library.0 a• About the book• About the author• I.
