Quick Navigation

Overview

MindTap for Eckert's CompTIA Linux+ and LPIC-1 Guide to Linux Certification, 6th Edition, is the digital learning solution that powers students from memorization to mastery. It gives you complete control of your course -- to provide engaging content, to challenge every individual and to build their confidence. Empower students to accelerate their progress with MindTap. MindTap: Powered by You.

MindTap gives you complete ownership of your content and learning experience. Customize the interactive syllabi, emphasize the most important topics, and add your own material or notes in the eBook.

MindTap activities and assignments are tied to the CompTIA Linux+ (XKO-005) certification exam objectives. The simulations provide real-life application and practice, and live virtual machine labs allow students to practice, explore and try different solutions in a safe, sandbox environment using real Cisco hardware and virtualized Windows, Linux and UNIX operating systems.

Readings give balanced coverage to prepare students to become future Linux administrators. Linux for Life assignments inspire students to stay current with new and emerging technologies. Pre- and post-exams offer questions in the style of the CompTIA Linux+ certification exam and allow you to measure how much students have learned using analytics and reporting that make it easy to see where the class stands in terms of progress, engagement and completion rates. Auto-graded module quizzes also help you gauge students' mastery of the course topics.

Use the content and learning path as-is, or pick and choose how the material will wrap around your own content. You control what the students see and when they see it.
