How to Adopt a Textbook

Adopting a DataField.Dev textbook for your course takes just a few minutes. Here's how:

1. Review the textbook Browse the full textbook online to confirm it aligns with your course objectives and covers the topics you need. Every chapter, exercise, and code example is freely accessible.
2. Share the URL with your students Add the textbook link to your syllabus or LMS (Canvas, Blackboard, Moodle, etc.). Students can access it instantly from any device — no account or download required.
3. Integrate into your syllabus Assign specific chapters for weekly readings, reference exercises for homework, and point students to code examples for lab work. The table of contents makes it easy to map chapters to your schedule.
4. Provide feedback Help us improve! If you spot an error, want additional coverage on a topic, or have suggestions, reach out via email or open a GitHub issue. Instructor feedback directly shapes future revisions.
