●ACTIONABLE AND MEASURABLE LEARNING OBJECTIVES EMPHASIZE IMPORTANT CONCEPTS. Newly added learning objectives guide students through the edition, calling attention to critical key points.●SOLID OVERVIEW PRESENTS BREADTH OF COMPUTER SCIENCE WITHOUT PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE SPECIFICS. The authors expertly present a language-independent, breadth-first introduction to computer science that includes coverage of today's hardware, software, and applications as well as a modern view of ethics.●UNIQUE APPROACH INTEGRATES TOPICS USING THE CONCEPT OF ALGORITHMS. Rather than simply present a large collection of seemingly random and unrelated topics, the authors tie the discipline of computer science together using a six-layer hierarchy that clearly demonstrates how the subjects in the book relate to each other. Student gain a clear understanding of the entire discipline of computer science that prepares them for future study in this field.●EXTENSIVE EXERCISES AND PROBLEMS PROVIDE NUMEROUS OPPORTUNITIES

Language teachers' competencies in computer-assisted language learning (CALL) are a crucial factor affecting their own implementation of CALL. However, there is still a concern that many language teac
