What is included with this book?
Briefer and more affordable than ever, the concise format is a manageable choice for students and instructors. With a new lower price and a new, smaller format with a narrative that is 15 percent shorter than the fourth edition and 20 percent shorter than the full-length parent text, the fifth concise edition is easy to carry and easy on the wallet. The updated design welcomes students into the narrative and offers clear visual reminders of what is important.
New LearningCurve adaptive learning tool ensures students do the reading and come to class prepared. The program adapts to each student’s answers so they build on what they already know and uncover and learn what they don’t. As students demonstrate understanding of a topic, they are fed more conceptual questions to deepen their knowledge. When they get a question wrong, feedback tells them why and links them to the book for review--with a chance to try again! Each chapter prompts students to log in to check their mastery of the reading and every new book comes with a code that unlocks LearningCurve.More primary sources than ever give students ample opportunity to build historical thinking skills. Abundant primary source features--including twice the number of multi-document features than the last edition and 9 all-NEW visual source features--give students ample opportunity to think critically and engage with the past.Digital resources save you time and help students learn. Whether you’re interested in presentation material (maps, images, customizable PowerPoint presentations, outline maps, and i>clicker classroom response content) from the book, free online students quizzing, an array of test questions, free primary sources—or all of the above—we have a wide variety of resources available in several formats. And if you want it all in one customizable course space, check out our interactive e-book.
