POWER Learning and Your Life: Essentials of Student Success

Integrity Check feature. With AI-based apps like OpenAI's ChatGPT, the ease with which one can cheat and the opportunities to do so continue to increase unabated. To address this, a new feature called Integrity Check has been added to every module of the fifth Canadian edition. It is intended as a jumping-off point for class discussion, where instructors can encourage students to discuss cheating openly and motivate them to reflect on the short- and long-term impact of cheating, both on themselves and on others.

New Module Name. Module 6 was renamed to Enhancing Digital Competency and Information Literacy to better reflect the content.

Updated Resources section. The Resources section at the end of every module has been updated to reflect the most current print and online resources available.

Updates to every module. Every module in the fifth Canadian edition has been updated to include current examples and technology, ensuring the material is relevant for students.
