The College Tutor Now Accepts Authors for Online Textbooks
The world is changing, and the scope of education is changing with it. Something that did not exist 10 years ago is fast becoming a growing trend in the world of education, which is called interchangeably online education, or distance education. Through the Internet, programs like the College Tutor have the potential to economically reach many more students and broaden the scope of education across the entire planet.
Online training is a popular method for learning new skills not only for students, but for teachers as well. With this Web-based training opportunity at their disposal, teachers can have virtual classrooms using the lessons in the Amelox College Tutor. Teachers are able to assign homework and create exams through the College Tutor databases, which can then be given in class or securely over the Internet. The student who is laid up in a hospital can still take the test together with all other students at the appointed time.
The College Tutor provides regular textbook chapters, which are followed up by questions and answers. These answers provide the rationale for why an answer is correct and why the others are not for high-intensity but convenient learning. Enter a short phrase, and instantly paragraphs show up where that phrase is used, similar to a glossary of terms.
The College Tutor also provides an opportunity for students to come together in a common online community through Amelox Forums to exchange ideas and questions with the teacher, and to help each other understand complex concepts in the course. Distance education allows many who are unable to travel to a particular school because of time or money constraints the opportunity to get the training they would otherwise miss out on.
Since the College Tutor accepts sound, graphics, and video, the sky is the limit as to what individuals can learn in this multi-medium environment, but authors are needed to ensure that all the important subjects can be covered.
This fast, secure, and economical online training method is the wave of the educational future and College Tutor authors are needed to help ensure that everyone who wants to learn a particular subject can do so. Whether one wants to learn a foreign language such as French, Arabic, or Farsi, how to complete intricate mechanical assemblies, study academic or corporate subjects, or learn military weapons systems, the College Tutor is the unsurpassed vehicle for such tasks.
If writing is something you like to do, and you want to help individuals reach their full potential through online training, then why not think about being a college tutor author? Being a textbook author enhances job security, prestige, recognition by peers, and often brings lucrative consulting contracts from Government agencies and corporations.
If you want to be at the forefront of modern education, apply to be an Amelox College Tutor author today. It could mean a world of difference for individuals who are hoping to become all they can be through distance education.

This book makes use of the powerful MATLAB software to avoid complex derivations, and to teach the fundamental concepts using the software to solve practical problems. Over the years, many textbooks have been written on the subject of numerical methods. Based on their course experience, the authors use a more practical approach and link every method to real engineering and/or science problems. The main benefit is that engineers don”t have to know the mathematical theory in order to apply the numerical methods for solving their real-life problems. An Instructor”s Manual presenting detailed solutions to all the problems in the book is available online. |

The Rock History Reader $40.95 Browse the course listings for most universities or colleges and chances are good that you will find a History of Rock class listed somewhere in their catalog. The study of rock music has become entrenched in higher learning. Yet as instructors encounter younger and younger students for whom rock’s history is either a shadowy, distant phenomenon or, conversely, an entity that seems too familiar, the need for a book that illuminates rock’s historical formation has become increasingly urgent. To be sure, there are numerous textbooks that supply a narrative of rock’s general stylistic development. Still there exists no anthology of historically based readings that sufficiently brings to life the often contentious issues, arguments, conflicts and creative tensions that have defined rock’s momentous rise and spread. The Rock History Reader seeks to fill that gap. The Rock History Reader is modeled after the types of annotated source reading collections that should be well familiar to any college classroom teacher in the Humanities. The Rock History Reader introduces students to rock as it has been received and explained as a social and musical practice during different historical eras. Arranged chronologically, this reader is perfect for the Introduction to Rock course, which usually proceeds from the roots of rock in the late ’40s through today’s latest trends. The editor has selected a variety of material–ranging from Chuck Berry’s comments on the injustices of the music, Lester Bangs’ influential style of rock criticism, Spiro Agnew’s political speech on the dangers of drugs and rock music, Dick Hebdige’s scholarly analysis of punk rock, or songwriter/performer JanisIan’s nuanced consideration of the ramifications of online music sharing–which are designed to encourage reflection and discussion in the classroom. Either as a primary textbook or as a supplement to a narrative history, The Rock History Reader promises to set a new standard for introd |
