American Identity Explorer: Immigration Interactive CD-ROM

Developed for Michigan State University and McGraw Hill, The American Identity Explorer: Immigration and Migration is an interactive, multimedia CD-ROM seminar and archive that explores mass migration to and within the U.S. from the 1890s to the 1920s. The archive is conceived as an interactive learning environment into which individuals can enter and initiate their own explorations. Accompanied by advanced viewing, searching, note taking, and organizing tools, the collection provides a rich base to explore a variety of issues and topics related to immigration, migration, and American identity.
