Together, We Build Careers
At Goodheart-Willcox, we take our mission seriously. Since 1921, G-W has been serving
the career and technical education (CTE) community. Our employee-owners are driven to
deliver exceptional learning solutions to CTE students to help prepare them for careers.
Our authors and subject matter experts have years of experience in the classroom and
industry. We combine their wisdom with our expertise to create content and tools to help
students achieve success. Our products start with theory and applied content based upon
a strong foundation of accepted standards and curriculum. To that base, we add student-
focused learning features and tools designed to help students make connections between
knowledge and skills. G-W recognizes the crucial role instructors play in preparing students
for careers. We support educators’ efforts by providing time-saving tools that help them
plan, present, assess, and engage students with traditional and digital activities and assets.
We provide an entire program of learning in a variety of print, digital, and online formats,
including economic bundles, allowing educators to select the right mix for their classroom.
Student-Focused Curated Content
Goodheart-Willcox believes that student-focused content should be built from accepted
curriculum coverage. Our authors and subject matter experts are experts in their field fi
and give considerable thought to the best ways to present content: for some, it may be a
building block approach with attention devoted to a logical teaching progression; for others,
it may be logical content presentation in small, focused lessons. We call on industry experts
and teachers from across the country to review and comment on our content, presentation,
and pedagogy. Finally, in our refinement of curated content, our editors are immersed in fi
content checking, securing and sometimes creating fi gures that convey key information, fi
and revising language and pedagogy.
Video: Digital Communication & Production is focused on students learning the
essentials in order to perform hands-on tasks as quickly as possible. The first two chapters fi
will help students start making videos immediately, while later chapters focus on finer fi
aspects of preproduction and postproduction. The text is heavily illustrated to help aid
student learning.
