The American Promise by University James L Roark

The American Promise, Value Edition, has long been a favorite with students who value the text's readability, clear chronology, and lively voices of ordinary Americans, all in a portable format. Instructors have long valued the full narrative accompanied by a 2-color map program and the rich instructor resources of the parent text made available at an affordable price. The sixth edition introduces a breakthrough in teaching and learning through the addition of LaunchPad, which combines carefully-curated new assignments and assessments integrated with the full-length parent text e-book--the same narrative in the Value Edition but with full color art and maps and more features for analysis--in its own intuitive course space. The American Promise Value Edition with LaunchPad now provides the best formats for every activity--the print book allows for a seamless reading experience while LaunchPad provides the right space for active learning assignments and dynamic course management tools that measure and analyze student progress. LaunchPad comes with a wealth of primary sources and special critical thinking activities to help students progress toward learning outcomes; LearningCurve, the adaptive learning tool that students love to use to cement their understanding of the text and instructors love to assign to prepare students for class; and a suite of instructor resources from videos to test banks that make teaching simpler and more effective. What's in the LaunchPad
