Nitz... I agree with you .. "text books are traditional way of teaching and tech can't beat Tradition" I refuse to by Kindle for anyone.. i donot like them at all. We have laptops in highschool which are very much encouraged.. but in elementary.. they have to read books. I think kids should have the dicipline of reading paper books. LMAO@ your #2.. yeepp at the rate they make changes everyyear to course work.. specially the way of teaching math (i just don't get math nowadays!😆) floors me!sorry to butt in but that "school of tomorrow" thing is already happening here. One of our local high schools was chosen to be the experiment group, all of the kids in the school got Kindles(electronic readers) for textbooks and they're testing it out. I've seen it and personally, I feel textbooks are much better because 1)they're bigger and 2) it's painstaking to charge the dang thing ever so often!
and plus, textbooks are the traditional way of teaching, technology can't beat tradition.
