• Accessible Physics Concepts for Blind Students (col11294)
  Author: R.G. (Dick) Baldwin

  Lens Tags: accessible physics blind

  Lens Comments: Blind students should not be excluded from physics courses because of inaccessible textbooks. The modules in this collection present physics concepts in a format that blind students can read using accessibility tools such as an audio screen reader and an electronic line-by-line Braille display. These modules are intended to supplement and not to replace the physics textbook.
• Advanced Algebra II: Activities and Homework (col10686)
  Author: Kenny M. Felder

  Lens Tags: algebra homework activity california math

  Lens Comments: This is the "main" book in Kenny Felder's "Advanced Algebra II" series. This text was created with a focus on 'doing' and 'understanding' algebra concepts rather than simply hearing about them in lecture format, and the activities in this collection represent the core components of this effort. Advanced Algebra II was recently included and successfully reviewed as part of California's Free Digital Textbook Initiative and is available for use by California high schools.
• Advanced Algebra II: Conceptual Explanations (col10624)
  Author: Kenny M. Felder

  Lens Tags: algebra concept explanation california math

  Lens Comments: This is the "concepts" book in Kenny Felder's "Advanced Algebra II" series. This text was created with a focus on 'doing' and 'understanding' algebra concepts rather than simply hearing about them in lecture format, with the conceptual explanations presented in this collection designed to support and complement the "Activities and Homework" book. Advanced Algebra II was recently included and successfully reviewed as part of California's Free Digital Textbook Initiative and is available for use by California high schools.
• Advanced Algebra II: Teacher's Guide (col10687)
  Author: Kenny M. Felder

  Lens Tags: algebra california teacher guide math

  Lens Comments: This is the "teacher's guide" book in Kenny Felder's "Advanced Algebra II" series. This text was created with a focus on 'doing' and 'understanding' algebra concepts rather than simply hearing about them in lecture format, with the resources presented in this collection designed to assist educators with the presentation and delivery of the topics covered in the course. Advanced Algebra II was recently included and successfully reviewed as part of California's Free Digital Textbook Initiative and is available for use by California high schools.
• Anatomy & Physiology (col11496)
  Author: OpenStax College
• Applied Finite Mathematics (col10613)
  Author: Rupinder Sekhon

  Lens Tags: linear sets game theory Markov probability matrices

  Lens Comments: Applied Finite Mathematics covers topics including linear equations, matrices, linear programming, the mathematics of finance, sets and counting, probability, Markov chains, and game theory.
• Automatic Generation of Prime Length FFT Programs (col10596)
  Author: C. Sidney Burrus

  Lens Tags: fast fourier transforms electrical engineering
• Biology (col11448)
  Author: OpenStax College
• Collaborative Statistics (col10522)
  Authors: Barbara Illowsky, Ph.D., Susan Dean

  Lens Tags: CCOTP math statistics

  Lens Comments: Collaborative Statistics was written by two faculty members at De Anza College in Cupertino, California. This book is intended for introductory statistics courses being taken by students at two- and four-year colleges who are majoring in fields other than math or engineering. The textbook was developed over several years and has been used in regular and honors-level classroom settings and in distance learning classes. The book focuses on applications of statistical knowledge rather than the theory behind it. The focus is on thinking statistically, incorporating technology, working collaboratively, and writing thoughtfully.
• College Physics (col11406)
  Author: OpenStax College

  Lens Tags: College Physics

  Lens Comments: This introductory, algebra-based, two-semester college physics book is grounded with real-world examples, illustrations, and explanations to help students grasp key, fundamental physics concepts. This online, fully editable and customizable title includes learning objectives, concept questions, links to labs and simulations, and ample practice opportunities to solve traditional physics application problems.
