Verlagsinformation :: Publisher's information
Routledge Resources Online have been designed to help instructors encourage their students to read beyond their textbook and develop a deeper understanding of all the topics they might be taught throughout their course.
They are the ideal starting point for coursework and assignments as intuitive search and detailed metadata make knowledge easily discoverable. New articles are added twice a year so students can access the latest literature reflecting emerging trends and new developments.
Hundreds of entries provide multiple perspectives of complex topics. They help students to evaluate and appraise the relevant literature and develop critical thinking skills. Short topics provide brief overviews to build foundational knowledge whilst key topics provide a detailed study of a topic and comparative review to promote analytical thinking skills and engagement within the field. These entries can be easily shared with students to provide supporting context and knowledge as key topics are being taught, and to help them to revise key parts of the syllabus ahead of a test or exam.
