confusion over buying textbooks

Applying to College
1

<p>Hi everyone :) I've just been admitted for dual enrollment (I'm a senior in HS), and am attempting to buy my freshman year textbooks. I got the first with no problem; the remaining one is confusing me. It's entitled Principles of Economics I: Macroeconomics: 2nd Edition. It only seems to be available through FSCJ (which is where I'm dual enrolling).</p>

<p>Could someone please explain what this product is? I was expecting it to be a physical textbook, but this is what it says on the order form (I haven't purchased it yet):</p>

<p>(Digital Edition)
Sachse
FSCJ SIRIUS PUBLICATIONS
Digital ISBN 9781931997287
Access: Web
Format: BryteWave Format</p>

<p>Does this mean it is a digital textbook, or an access card...? It is listed as a required material, and I'm a bit leery of it since I don't know what it is, precisely. Thanks, and sorry if this is a dumb question :) I'm extremely new to all of this.</p>

<p>Make sure you get the ISBN for what you are supposed to purchase before buying. You can just email the professor and ask for the ISBN for the textbook.</p>

<p>for future reference, this would probably fit better/ get more responses in the college life forum. But yes, that is a digital textbook.</p>
