FOR TEACHERS NEW IN ALPS

Mix curricula. Hide what doesn't fit.

One coherent textbook for your class — even when the perfect coverage spans two, three, or more books. Mix curricula, hide the units you don't need, and assign coursework from any of them in the same flow.

menu_book

Borrow without juggling Attach another curriculum (or a few). Pick the units you actually want — the rest stay invisible to students.

visibility

Per-section visibility Hide chapters you're skipping this semester. View as a student to confirm what they actually see.

Coursework, unchanged Your existing recipes — Warm-up, Practice, Textbook Unit — automatically pull from every curriculum you've bound.

Defeasible by assignment Hide a chapter for the class, then assign it to specific students for differentiated practice. Both rules coexist.

Period 4 — AP CSA Textbook

Two curricula bound — CS Awesome 2.0 plus three borrowed Java Methods units. As a teacher you see everything; the eye-icons mark which units reach students.

Welcome to AP CSA

Hi Alex! Your textbook has two parts: CS Awesome 2.0 (the AP curriculum) and three units from Java Methods that Ms. Patel chose to deepen our coverage of software engineering, class design, and algorithms.

Unit 0 — Getting Started

Set up your Java environment, the AP exam framework, and pair-programming habits.

Unit 1 — Using Objects and Methods

Variables, expressions, calling methods on objects, and the basics of Java syntax.

Unit 2 — Selection and Iteration

Boolean expressions, if statements, and the loop family — for, while, and nested control flow.

SAME WORKFLOW

Same magic in Coursework

When you create assignments, the unit picker pulls from every curriculum you've bound — automatically grouped, hidden units suppressed, primary curriculum first. No new menus, no mode switch.

layers

Every recipe respects bindings Warm-ups, Practice, Textbook Unit, Spiral Review — all of them. Pick a unit from any curriculum; the assignment knows where it came from.
