Introductory algebra-based physics for science majors

​College Physics meets standard scope and sequence requirements for a two-semester introductory algebra-based physics course. The text is grounded in real-world examples to help students grasp fundamental physics concepts. It requires knowledge of algebra and some trigonometry, but not calculus. College Physics includes learning objectives, concept questions, links to labs and simulations, and ample practice opportunities for traditional physics application problems.
​

​Trunity Enhanced Edition
The text in this Trubook edition is identical to the OpenStax version.  Our designers have enhanced the OpenStax version by adding high resolution images, additional videos, interactive student self-assessments, links to further research, and a dynamic one-click glossary. OpenStax College Physics on the Trubook eLearning Platform enables instructors to customize the content, add additional resources, and manage their course materials, assignments, assessments and gradebook. Trubooks provides students with personalization tools such as bookmarking, highlighting, and annotation, along with the ability to do self-assessment, submit projects, take quizzes and exams, and communicate with their classmates and instructor.

The result is an educational resource that combines the excellent biology content of the OpenStax version with the Trubook features that enhance the student learning experience. 
​
Trubooks can easily be tailored for a perfect fit.
Use the tools built into the Trubooks platform to customize OpenStax College Physics, to meet the specific needs of your course, keep it relevant to local interests and in tune with world events as they happen.

Sharing the good stuff...
You get access to the same authoring and content management tools available to all our authors and publishing partners. The resources you create can be seamlessly integrated into your coursebook(s) as needed for the classes you teach. They can also be made available for you to share with your colleagues or to be adopted by educators around the world who are using Trubooks in their classroom. ​

Here is a concise summary of fair use: https://www.teachingcopyright.org. If you are feeling especially ambitous, you can refer directly to Title 17 of the United States Code that describes fair use in the nation’s copyright law: http://www.copyright.gov/title17/92chap1.html#107
