Developed by veteran educators and industry professionals, the Pro Tools | First curriculum includes student guides, separate lessons plans, hands-on exercises with engaging media resources, and more. The curriculum provides educators the tools needed to introduce students to the world of audio production with the perspective of a sound engineer.
The curriculum guide highlights California’s Career Technical Education Model Curriculum Standards for Art, Media, and Entertainment (AME) and learning objectives based off of National Core Arts Standards (NCAS) for Media Arts for each of the 18 lessons included in the book.
All textbook content is automatically made available on a digital streaming interface—though a standalone version of the book is also available for purchase in print and ePub formats—to allow for integration with a learning assessment platform.
On the platform, students can:
• Review course content by lesson or by topic

Instructors can:
