Overview College Physics is an introductory, algebra-based, two-semester college physics digital textbook that combines two outstanding elements: core content from OpenStax College that has been enhanced by the Trunity Content Learning Platform. OpenStax College is an initiative of Rice University to improve student access to quality learning materials that has earned a reputation for outstanding educational content. The text is identical to the OpenStax version. Our editors have enhanced the OpenStax version by adding high resolution images, additional videos, interactive student self-assessments, links to further research, and a dynamic electronic glossary. The content is embedded in a Content Learning Platform that enables instructors to customize the content, and that provides students with personalization tools such as bookmarking, highlighting, and annotation. The result is an educational resource that combines the exceptional physics content of the OpenStax version with the Web-based features that enhance the student learning Experience. College Physics uses the power of the Web to engage students with video, interactive self-assessment, a dynamic glossary, electronic note-taking and bookmarks, and other personal learning tools. Instructors have the ability to customize the book by adding and rearranging content such as videos, exams, labs, assignments, and news articles.
