Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"I have found that the discussions have improved for this course since using Visions because the students can connect the readings to their own cultural experiences." "The questions, group activities, and writing activities are all excellent, and proved useful for various purposes." "The content coverage is particularly suitable to our . . . college students because the selections represent a similar diversity to that found in our classrooms. It is rare and wonderful to find selections written by immigrants and descendents of immigrants. . . ."

Reseña del editor:

VISIONS ACROSS THE AMERICAS presents 70 cross-cultural essays on diverse topics such as: Language and Culture; the Family; Americans and Immigrants; Education and Intelligence; Lifestyles; Racism, Sexism, and Ageism; American Society, Prejudices and Stereotypes; and Technology, Cyberspace, and the Cosmos. Each chapter provides students with a blueprint for a specific essay type, with pre- and post-reading questions and activities that reinforce an understanding of the rhetorical modes, and encourage them to think and write clearly and critically.
