Kaleidoskop
by Barbara Mabee and Jack Moeller and Simone Berger and Winnifred R. AdolphKaleidoskop is essentially two books in one: a cultural and literary reader with a comprehensive review of grammar. This combination allows maximum flexibility for instructors to design their own programs. The 10 topics of the Lekt're section contain a variety of texts and activities, and the 10 Kapitel of the self-contained grammar section (Grammatik) allow instructors to work with the grammar topics in whatever order they choose; the grammar chapters may be treated independently of the reading chapters or used concurrently with the Themen of the same number. Given these materials the instructor can provide a learner-centered classroom with activities that lend themselves to cooperative learning. Kaleidoskop features a flexible four-skills, learner-centered approach that promotes communication and focuses on the literature and culture of the German-speaking world. Reading plays an important role in this text, with exercises for listening, speaking and writing revolving around the wide range of authentic reading selections. These texts are authentic and include advertisements, charts, newspaper and magazine articles, letters, e-mails, forum mails, polls, interviews, biographies, songs, poems, and fiction.

The Human Record To 1700
by Alfred J. Andrea and James H. OverfieldThe Human Record is a leading collection of primary sources for world history courses and can be used as either a core or supplementary text. Unlike many world history texts that center on the West, The Human Record provides balanced coverage of the global past. The book features both written and artifactual sources placed in their full historical contexts through introductory essays, footnotes, and focus questions. Each volume in the Fifth Edition begins with a prologue-"Primary Sources and How We Read Them"-that introduces students to the proper methods for reading and interpreting primary source material; the authors also walk students through sample visual and textual sources to help them master this skill. Part, chapter, section, and individual source introductions help students place primary sources within a historical context. New! Approximately one-third of the selections in each volume are new to this edition, and many of the remaining sources contain updated explanations and focus questions. New! The final chapter in Volume II has been revised to include coverage of recent global events such as the September 11th attacks. "Questions for Analysis," which precede each source, are presented in a three-tiered format that resembles a historian s approach to source analysis. Each volume contains a Table of Contents organized by topical and geographical criteria. Several visual sources, such as photos of coins, sculptures, paintings, and textiles, are provided in each volume.
The Human Record
by Alfred J. Andrea and James H. OverfieldNow in its Sixth Edition, The Human Record continues to be the leading primary source reader for the World History course.

Approximately one-third of the sources in the Sixth Edition are new, and these documents continue to reflect the myriad experiences of the peoples of the world.

Holt Sociology
by W. Laverne ThomasMuch of the writing in this textbook is summarizing. The sociological data in this textbook has been collected from many sources. Summarizing all the characteristics of a society or even a social institution involves studying a large body of demographic, cultural, economic, geological, and historical information. Finding the Main Idea is the ability to identify the main point in a set of information. This textbook is designed to help you focus on the main ideas in sociology. The Read to Discover questions in each chapter help you identify the main ideas in each section. Identifying points of view helps us examine why people see things as they do. It also reinforces the realization that people's views may change over time or with a change in circumstances. Analyzing Information is the process of breaking something down into parts and examining the relationships between those parts. Comparing and Contrasting involve examining events, points of view, situations, or styles to identify their similarities and differences. Comparing focuses on both the similarities and the differences. Contrasting focuses only on the differences. Studying similarities and differences between people and things can give you clues about social theories, human interaction, and societies.
