The new editions further reflect the state of our history and society with new coverage of the Latino/a experience, in addition to updated coverage of other groups, including Native Americans, African Americans, and the LGBTQ community in America. America has a focus on student success: providing extra support in and out of class through core learning objectives that are carried throughout the text and resources, the InQuizitive adaptive learning tool, and new digital resources focused on primary and secondary sources. America gives students extra support to effectively engage with the story and build critical history skills. From the engaging narrative through the consistency of the core objectives to the book's design - America lends itself to student engagement and success.
