What We’re About

We wrote Microsoft Office 2016: In Practice to meet the diverse needs of both students and instructors.
Our approach focuses on presenting Office topics in a logical and structured manner, teaching concepts
in a way that reinforces learning with practice projects that are transferrable, relevant, and engaging.
Our pedagogy and content are based on the following beliefs.

Students Need to Learn and Practice Transferable Skills

Students must be able to transfer the concepts and skills learned in the text to a variety of projects, not
simply follow steps in a textbook. Our material goes beyond the instruction of many texts. In our con-
tent, students practice the concepts in a variety of current and relevant projects and are able to transfer
skills and concepts learned to different projects in the real world. To further increase the transferability
of skills learned, this text is integrated with SIMnet so students also practice skills and complete proj-
ects in an online environment.

Your Curriculum Drives the Content

The curriculum in the classroom should drive the content of the text, not the other way around. This book
is designed to allow instructors and students to cover all the material they need to in order to meet the cur-
riculum requirements of their courses no matter how the courses are structured. Microsoft Office 2016: In
Practice teaches the marketable skills that are key to student success. McGraw-Hill’s Custom Publishing
site, Create, can further tailor the content material to meet the unique educational needs of any school.

Integrated with Technology

Our text provides a fresh and new approach to an Office applications course. Topics integrate seam-
lessly with SIMnet with 1:1 content to help students practice and master concepts and skills using
SIMnet’s interactive learning philosophy. Projects in SIMnet allow students to practice their skills and
receive immediate feedback. This integration with SIMnet meets the diverse needs of students and
accommodates individual learning styles. Additional textbook resources found in SIMnet (Resources
and Library sections) integrate with the learning management systems that are widely used in many
online and onsite courses.

Reference Text
In addition to providing students with an abundance of real-life examples and practice projects, we
designed this text to be used as a Microsoft Office 2016 reference source. The core material, unclut-
tered with exercises, focuses on real-world use and application. Our text provides clear step-by-step
instructions on how readers can apply the various features available in Microsoft Office in a variety of
contexts. At the same time, users have access to a variety of both online (SIMnet) and textbook practice
projects to reinforce skills and concepts.

Textbook Learning Approach
Microsoft Office 2016: In Practice uses the T.I.P. approach:
• Topic
• Instruction
• Practice

Topic
• Each Office application section begins with foundational skills and builds to more complex topics
as the text progresses.
• Topics are logically sequenced and grouped by topics.
• Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs) are thoroughly integrated with and mapped to chapter
content, projects, end-of-chapter review, and test banks.
• Reports are available within SIMnet for displaying how students have met these Student Learning
Outcomes.

Instruction (How To)

• How To guided instructions about chapter topics provide transferable and adaptable instructions.
• Because How To instructions are not locked into single projects, this textbook functions as a
reference text, not just a point-and-click textbook.
• Chapter content is aligned 1:1 with SIMnet.

Practice (Pause & Practice and End-of-Chapter Projects)

• Within each chapter, integrated Pause & Practice projects (three to five per chapter) reinforce
learning and provide hands-on guided practice.
• In addition to Pause & Practice projects, each chapter has 10 comprehensive and practical
practice projects: Guided Projects (three per chapter), Independent Projects (three per chapter),
Improve It Project (one per chapter), and Challenge Projects (three per chapter). Additional
projects can also be found in the Library or Resources section of SIMnet.
• Pause & Practice and end-of-chapter projects are complete content-rich projects, not small
examples lacking context.
• Select auto-graded projects are available in SIMnet.
