Just how successful were the reform movements of the ninteenth and twentieth centuries? Using documents ranging from the writings of Mother Jones to the marriage vows of Lucy Stone, individuals consider the question in a scaffolded primary source analysis. Another essay question asks pupils to consider the effects of technology on American society. Multiple choice questions—some including primary sources, maps or informational graphics—deepen learners' content and analytical skills.
