A Student's Guide to Search (New)

Find content quickly across your textbook

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Overview

Search helps you quickly find content anywhere in your textbook, no matter which chapter you’re currently viewing.

Search may or may not be available in your textbook, depending on how your instructor has configured it.

This guide explains what search includes and how to navigate after opening search results.


What Search Includes

Search allows you to find any published content in the textbook, regardless of which chapter you start from.

Search results may include content from other chapters. Selecting a result will open that content in your current window, even if that content is not currently published in your LMS.

Search includes:

  • Chapters

  • Assignments

  • Pages

  • Video segments

Search does not include assessment content. Quiz and exam questions are not searchable.

Think of it like a searchable glossary or index.


Navigating After Using Search

To get back to the original chapter you opened, you can:

1. Use your browser’s Back button to return to where you were.

2. Or, navigate back to the chapter through the link in your LMS.


What’s Next

This is the first version of search. If you have thoughts on what’s helpful, what’s confusing, or what you’d like to see next, feel free to share them through the bot.
