The Online Learning Center (OLC) consists of three sections: Information
Center, Instructor Center, and Student Center.
The Information Center has sections of the student text, including a sample chapter.
The Student Center also has sections of the student text, along with a
mixed quiz for each chapter, the Glossary from the book, and games for
enhanced learning.
The Instructor Center contains the Instructor’s Manual for this text,
which includes an overview of and introduction to the material to aid
instructors with its incorporation into the curriculum. The manual also includes:
extended chapter outlines
sample course outlines
curriculum suggestions
sample lesson plans
teaching strategies/instructor tips
learning activities
answers to the questions in the text
Also for the instructor are:
PowerPoint presentations for each chapter
an image bank of the text’s illustrations, which can be printed and used
as handouts
EZ Test questions for each chapter
McGraw-Hill’s EZ Test is a flexible and easy-to-use electronic testing
program. The program allows instructors to create tests from book-specific
items. It accommodates a wide range of question types, and instructors
may add their own questions, as well. Instructors can also create multiple
versions of the test, and any test can be exported for use with course
management systems such as WebCT, BlackBoard, and PageOut. EZ Test
Online is a new service that gives instructors a place online where they
can easily administer EZ Test–created exams and quizzes. The program is
available for both PC and Macintosh operating systems.
