[quote=Anonymous][quote]I was not at the meeting. But nonetheless it seems to me that there is a difference between "replacing at least 70 percent of printed text with digital materials" and "eliminating all textbooks". Especially given that there is such a thing as electronic textbooks.[/quote] On-line is fine with me as long as it is available outside the school hours for a child to access and study and the materials are legitimate created by reputable academic sources not internal MCPS crap. The problem with MCPS is that they will decide to create the materials themselves when they are not qualified to do it. They will not get done and will move forward with missing pieces. They will not provide access outside class time to hide the fact that they are not done. The teachers will complain within the union about the poor quality of materials and lack of completeness. The union will use it as a bargaining chip for salary/benefits. The kids will be left with crap. [/quote]
