Navigating This Site

To get started, scroll over one of the 15 buttons (each of which corresponds to a chapter from the text) on the left side of the screen. Then select the desired activity for that chapter: Study, Quiz, Flashcards, or Crossword. (Exercises and Explore pages will be posted soon.)

The Study section for each chapter contains a chapter summary and learning objectives.

The Quiz section allows you to test your mastery of the material via multiple-choice and true-false questions provided for each chapter. You can opt to take each quiz with immediate or summarized results. For the "immediate" path, you see correct and incorrect answers question by question; for the "summarized" path, you will answer all quiz questions and then see correct and incorrect answers at the end, replicating a more realistic testing environment. After completing the quiz, you will see your "detailed results" which include your percentage grade for the quiz and outline your results by question type (e.g., conceptual, factual, and vocabulary) and by chapter section. You can also click on "see all answers" to see each of your responses. And please click on "email" to send your quiz results to your instructor.

The Flashcards allow you to review the key terms from the book. You can view terms and click for definitions, or vice versa, view definitions and click for terms. You can mark terms you would like to return to for further study, as well as shuffle and reset the cards.

The Crossword pages are another fun and interactive way to master the book's key terms. You need Java enabled to view the crossword applet. If you do not have Java installed you can obtain it from java.com. If you do have Java you may need to check your security settings to make sure that applets are enabled. In Windows XP you may be able to enable the applet by clicking on the yellow bar at the top of the window and selecting "Allow blocked content". If you get stuck, you have several options on the left — reveal an individual letter, an answer, or the entire puzzle (though that would be cheating!).
