    activities, and assessments for each chapter.

     Lone Star North Harris Quick Start Guide
    This Quick Start Guide matches the learning outcomes and course topics from Lone Star North Harris with supporting materials from the Concise Version of College and Career Success.

    Videos
   
These are files or links to videos for use in classroom or online instruction. 

    Internet Links
   
A list of related links is available for each topic in CollegeScope or College
    and Career Success.

    PowerPoint
   
There is a library of PowerPoint slides for each chapter in the college success
    materials. 

    Test Bank
   
A bank of test questions is available for each topic in CollegeScope or
    College and Career Success.  Test banks are available as .doc files that can
    be used with Microsoft Word,  ExamView Pro files or zip files for online classes
    using Blackboard.  E-mail  marsha.fralick@gcccd.edu to receive a copy of the
    test bank.  You must be a textbook or e-text adopter to receive a copy of the test
    bank.  Specify which edition and type of files you prefer. 

    I highly recommend the ExamView Test Generator.  With this software program,
    you can insert my test banks and select, edit or add your own questions for your
    test.  The program automatically generates your test.  It eliminates re-typing or
    cutting and pasting all those questions.  They have a free download so you can
    try out the program.  Request my .bnk files for use with the ExamView Test
    Generator.
