Overview

Now students can master the nuances of Microsoft® Office quickly with ILLUSTRATED MICROSOFT® OFFICE 2019 & OFFICE 365 INTERMEDIATE, part of today's popular Illustrated Series. This focused, user-friendly approach uses a proven two-page layout that allows students to work through an entire task without turning the page. Clear Learning Outcomes outline the skills for each lesson, while large full-color screen images reflect exactly what students see on their own computers. Each module begins with a brief overview of the principles covered in the lesson and introduces a real-world case scenario to engage students and reinforce critical skills to make them successful in their educational and professional careers. In addition, MindTap and updated SAM (Skills Assessment Manager) online resources are available to guide additional study and ensure successful results.

Features

{{collapseContainerClosed['features'] ? 'Show More' : 'Show Less'}}
  • Quality Learning! This series goes beyond learning Office applications by providing contextual relevance with a trusted and proven pedagogy combined with real world scenarios and assessments. With a deeper focus on employability, this new edition demonstrates real world relevance and professionalism with all-new case scenarios written to reflect the top industries hiring for Microsoft Office skills. The New Perspectives Series’ critical-thinking, problem-solving approach has a case-based pedagogy built around realistic business scenarios. This is the ideal way to prepare students to transcend point-and-click skills and take advantage of all that Microsoft Office 2019 has to offer. The new edition gives students the software concepts and practical skills they need to succeed beyond the classroom. With the New Perspectives Series, students understand why they are learning what they are learning and are prepared to apply their skills and solve problems in real-life situations.
  • Easy! As part of our new intuitive design, the updated readings are now closely aligned with SAM (Skills Assessment Manager) Trainings, Exams, and Projects to reflect the latest and greatest Office 365 and Office 2019 features. With a focus on more practice opportunities, SAM Projects have expanded Textbook Projects to all module levels (Introduction, Intermediate, and Advanced). To help students utilize Textbook Projects fully, a new SAM icon is now embedded in the readings. The icon indicates when a student should download their files from SAM or MindTap to start a Textbook Project, and when they should upload their completed Textbook Project for instantaneous grading and feedback. There are also new SAM End-of-Module Projects, which are based on the Case Problems found in each module and offer full auto grading. With a variety of easy-to-use assessments, students will be able to quickly and efficiently demonstrate their understanding of Office.
  • Affordable! The product suite is available in a variety of purchase options to give students the best value for the tools and resources that they need and to allow students to choose how to learn. With the launch of Cengage Unlimited, student can access all of the Microsoft Office content for just one price, plus thousands of other resources, plus opt for a low-cost rental or purchase of a bound book or loose-leaf text. Students benefit from access to the full Office Collections in MindTap.
  • Trusted Partner! This product suite was developed to cover the most critical features of the Office applications to drive student engagement and comprehension. By implementing feedback from partners in the Cengage Computing Community and beyond, as well as incorporating the 2019 Microsoft Office Skills (MOS), students will learn and apply key skills they need for success not just on their educational and professional journeys, but also in their day-to-day usage of Office applications.
