Order Number: 7147

This CD-ROM has been developed to help all students, either at GCSE or AS/A2 level, with their understanding of the American New Deal. It aims to provide lively, engaging and appropriate exam-focussed material that is well-structured and supportive for pupils of all abilities.

The main focus of this CD-ROM is largely on content, that is, to examine and explore the time period 1932 to 1945. Therefore, it examines how and why Roosevelt won the 1932 Presidential election, what Roosevelt did to engage the American People with his New Deal and how the onset of World War Two altered his policies and ideals. There are sections that deal with historians’ differing interpretations of Roosevelt. This revision aid will greatly help students to maximise their examination potential.

Through this CD-ROM pupils are promoted to spend much time and care developing their source analysis and extended answer technique. In addition to this, the CD-Rom contains a relevant checklist section to promote further recursive learning and there are practice exam questions that your students can answer and you can mark.
