Welcome to the Interactive Student Study Guide (ISSG) to Americans All: Race and Ethnic Relations in Historical, Structural, and Comparative Perspectives, Second Edition by Peter Kivisto, Augustana College and Wendy Ng, San Jose State University. This ISSG was written and compiled by Wendy Ng.
The goal of the ISSG is to act as a supplemental resource to your textbook. In the ISSG, you will find a wealth of resources to help you form good study habits, and prepare you for the upcoming tests and exams in your intercultural communication class.
More specifically, this study guide has five objectives:
(1) To highlight for you what the authors think is most important in each chapter;
(2) To help you study for exams and tests in a more effective and efficient manner;
(3) To test your knowledge of key terms covered in the textbook;
(4) To call attention to the important special features and news in each chapter;
(5) To provide resources to further your knowledge.
In each chapter, you will find the following special interactive features:
• A to-the-point section on the objectives of each chapter.
• A chapter-by-chapter key terms flashcard section to assist you in learning important concepts.
• A chapter-by-chapter glossary-matching quiz section to cross-test whether you have mastered the key definitional concepts.
• A chapter-by-chapter review quiz section with practice multiple-choice and true/false questions to prepare you for exams and in-class quizzes.
• Useful Internet links that relate to each chapter as a supplement your text.
• Further readings that relate to each chapter as a supplement your text.
In addition, there is a glossary, which contains all chapter key terms in alphabetical order, a help section to address technical issues you may have with the site and a link to the pulblisher of the book, Roxbury Publishing for questions, concerns or suggestions. You may also explore other relevant books that Roxbury publishes.
