[quote=Anonymous]Can someone (an educator) please tell me why schools have decided not to use textbooks anymore?? (With the exception of math, sometimes). IT just drives me bananas come exam time, and my poor kid is shuffling through various packets and notes on random papers, and . . . . it is hard for me to help her with a study strategy when old school methods (you know, review the source material/textbook) are out the window. Makes it so much harder to get a handle on the universe of material you need to master. BIGGEST PET PEEVE EVER - [b]I'm looking at you, Basis[/b] - where there is just a ton of material/concepts covered and no "mother" source to review/turn to for answers. UGGHHHHH!![/quote]
