Review
"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 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. . . ."
"The questions, group activities, and writing activities are all excellent, and proved useful for various purposes."
