You have the choice of integrating a textbook with your class.
If you do not wish to integrate a textbook, just click "No," then
"Next Step." If you do wish to integrate a textbook, click "Yes."
You will then see a menu of available textbooks from which you can choose
the one you are using (Fig. 6.24).
Note that some textbooks appear in multiple editions or versions; be
sure to choose the correct one. If your textbook is not in the list,

ALEKS Curriculum. You can also choose the
"ALEKS Curriculum," which is a division of topics based on the slices
of the ALEKS Pie for that course product. Using the ALEKS
Curriculum enables you to structure your students' learning in classes
where there is no textbook involved.
Underneath the menu is an additional choice, "Only reference the
textbook; do not direct student learning." If you check this,
references to the textbook will appear on the ALEKS Explanation
pages (Sec. 5.3.2), but there will be
no option to set completion dates for chapters, nor will the coverage
of the class be adjusted to the textbook. In order to use all Textbook
Integration features, leave this box unchecked.
