Electric Book Company has produced its first Electric Booklet title - College Algebra - the companion product for College Algebra by OpenStax. Click HERE to view the company's first Electric Booklet.
The companion work includes over 500 example problems obtained from the original title; the booklet is released through the Creative Commons BY license.
Under the CCBY license, Electric Book is free to produce commercial, derivative works, so long as the content includes proper attribution and links to the original content. As the booklet contains only example problems, it serves as an ideal 'go to' product for students who want to quickly access practice materials that focus on the development of problem-solving skills.
EBC re-formats original content to provide a superior user experience either on a desktop or on mobile device. One of the key features of an Electric Booklet is the ability to turn on 'single-stepping', enabling the display of portions of the solution narrative to allow students to better reflect on the manipulations needed for the next step of a solution sequence.
The booklet is searchable, and individual problems are easily saved for future reference by using the browser bookmark feature. Individual problems can also be shared through Facebook.
College Algebra is the initial Electric Booklet title available from EBC; additional titles will be available during upcoming months.
