[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Curious if part of the reason for no textbooks is that it makes it more difficult for parents and tutors to be involved in homework. [/quote] Textbooks are expensive and quickly become outdated. No reason to add that expense to your budget with how accessible everything is online. Plus other than the most traditional school, the model of the teacher at the front of the classroom lecturing to students from a textbook is really no longer used. Many schools prefer to use a more hands-on approach that textbooks do not lend themselves well to.[/quote]
