[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]NP. I'm sorry if this is a dumb question but if there is no textbook what do they test on? If they are all finding information on various websites then what do they study? Are the tests essays or multiple choice? I would be puzzled on how to help my kid prepare. [/quote] Same way we did when I was in high school (and college, for that matter)? Review notes from class. Complete review assignments. For classes with slide decks, pull them from blackboard and go through them again. The number of textbooks I ever used at home (K-college) can be counted on one hand, and they were all math/physics (and only for homework, not for notes or studying). We had textbooks in history classes, sure, but in high school they were only for sub day lessons and in college if you went to the lectures you basically didn’t have to read (and if you read you could skip lecture).[/quote]
