Google For Education created the Applied Computing Series so the fields of computer science and data science are accessible to all. The courses are aimed toward all students, including those without a technical background. Our project focused on refining the textbook written for one Applied Computing course, specifically to be more engaging for students without technical experience. In addition, the project included exploring other methods to access the textbook as well as creating more resources for instructors and students.
