As the educational division of Telemedia, Inc., Schoolcraft Publishing takes advantage of the relationship with still another division, TPC Training Systems, a leading provider of high-quality technical skills training materials to manufacturers, processing companies, utilities, and government/municipal agencies in the United States, Canada, and other countries since 1968.
With its unique resources, Schoolcraft Publishing is a publisher and provider of training, teaching, and learning materials for industrial technology and education, business and industry customized training, maintenance training, apprenticeship programs, safety and health training, and more!
All of these materials were designed to be pedagogically sound and to be effective learning/training tools with an equally praiseworthy instructional support system designed to reduce the amount of time needed for class preparation, wherever that class may be.
So Schoolcraft Publishing is not your typical publishing company and stand–alone books are not our only products—teaching/training/learning materials and systems are. Integrated supplemental and related videotapes, CD-ROMs, instructional support materials, assessment and testing systems, and web-based content delivery complement our systematic and multi-media approach to learning and training. The system not only provides a meaningful, multi-faceted learning environment but also helps instructors manage their time, as time is precious indeed!
The first six lessons in this course focus on the two most important commercial metals-iron and steel. Their origins, properties, and uses are described and shown in illustrations. In its entirety, this course provides a thorough overview of the principal metals in commercial use.

As a post-secondary professional educator, I occasionally find it difficult to "nudge" students out of their ordinary routine of "memorize, regurgitate, and forget". I have had great success in targeting multiple learning styles using TPC's CBT as a means of breaking this cycle; and in helping my students retain the critical information that they need in order to continue building their knowledge base. I will continue to use TPC materials to help support my classroom discussions regarding assigned reading in multiple disciplines; and can count on TPC to work with me to update this material as industries needs or technology changes.
