Some of you are asking questions about how the Online Roadmap works. The Homepage for the Roadmap is HERE. (For your convenience I have also placed a link on the sidebar of the blog.) I have suggested that you should listen to the online summaries of the chapters before beginning your reading and some of you also want to know how to read and listen to your book online. I hope the following instructions are helpful:
#1 Make sure you are logged in - this is located on the left menu of the Homepage (you have to scroll down). If you are not logged in you can only see sample materials!!
#2 You have all purchased the premium version of the site. To access that information you have to scroll down and click the red square that says Premium Access.
#3 Click the button that says Premium Media (you may or may not have to select Volume I).
#4 From here you can read the text book online or listen to the audio version of the text. There are some other links on this page - the most useful one for you may be the mnemonics. If you don't know what mnemonics are or how to use them you can watch a short video explanation HERE.
#5 Unfortunately to access the regular materials and chapter resources you have to go back to the basic site. On the top menu click 'Back to Basic Site'.
#6 Click Volume I and select your chapter. Click 'Chapter Media'. Here you can listen to the chapter summary and also listen to an mp3 which gives extra information or things to think about further once you've finished reading the chapter.
#7 There are many other tools that you can use and explore under each chapter such as graphics, maps, timeline, key people and events, government, vocabulary and everything. Don't spend too much time here or rely on this information too much, though. The most important thing you can do is your reading - your ACTIVE reading.
THERE IS NO SUBSTITUTE FOR YOUR MIND WORKING ON AND THROUGH THE MATERIAL!!
