Visualizing Technology provides you with a hands-on, highly visual approach to computer concepts. As you learn new skills, you'll apply them to projects or IT simulations or watch Viz Clip videos to dive deeper. The text's magazine-style chapters offer consistent instruction and active practice with Digital Literacy, Essential Job Skills projects and engaging videos.

The 10th Edition covers a vast range of technological trends affecting modern workplaces, such as Blockchain, digital currency, NFTs, Metaverse, quantum computing, immersive technology and IoT hacks. Images have been updated throughout to better illustrate chapter concepts and each chapter begins with a Tech Challenges box to encourage thinking critically about the way digital elements impact everyday life.
