What are the textbooks in theUS so massive and heavy? |
|
I don't understand the purpose
of making the textbook
difficult to carry. Textbooks
are so heavy and causing my
shelve to distort. When I was
in high school, I always had
to carry 60lbs of books in my
backpack. Why can't publishers
use a different material to
make books ? In China and
India the textbooks are very
light and easy to transport,
so it can be done. |

I agree with you. Books have
always been heavy. I remember
carrying them around with me
back and forth daily because
of school work and studying
for tests.
My opinion: The books get
heavier, thicker, and the
print gets smaller the older
we get. There are simple ways
to explain ideas, and as we
continue our education, the
way those ideas are explained
use more vocabulary words and
long-winded explanations.
When we get to college, we are
usually buying the book the
Professor wrote for the class.
It has always made me wonder.
MOST reading material in the
military is written at the 6th
grade level. With Kindle
technology out, is this
another option for carrying
books? Today there are also
electronic versions of books
available online for use and
reference in pdf. A better
archive and library to access.
You have the quick find keys,
etc to assist. |

What to do with recentlypurchased textbooks? |
|
I recently went to a
district-wide textbook sale
and purchased about 10
textbooks that interested me.
After I selected one, worked
through a lesson, and did the
practice problems, I realized
that the student editions of
the textbooks didn't contain
any answers. Any suggestions
as to how I should check my
work or aquire the answer keys
to the textbooks?
The textbook companies really
make it hard for independent
learners to check their
answers. I suppose that this
greatly cuts down on the
student just copying the
answers in the back, but a
textbook is worthless to an
independent learner without
the key.
If you would like to contact
me about any of the textbooks,
e-mail me at

Good for you for trying to
learn outside the classroom.
I'll be honest, though. You
can't blame this one on the
companies. Many teachers don't
want the answers available for
their students to copy, so the
companies have to keep them
private. Check the publishers'
websites, and contact them to
see if they will help you. If
not, see if you can get a
teacher at the appropriate
level to help you with this,
or at least to check your
answers. |
