Looking forward---science

Post by mamas4bugs » Wed Jun 15, 2011 3:57 pm

Does anyone have any idea if the science in the high school guides will continue to utilize living science books, or if there will be a switch to more of a textbook approach? I'm hoping for living books, but I don't even know if such books exist to cover upper level science courses. :?:

Thanks! :)

This is HOD's hope too - let the search begin! :D If possible, we'd love to have a more living book approach, but HOD is committed to the science being rigorous enough as well, so that will be a big part of the consideration of selection of resources too. :D

Thanks, Julie! :)

I'm sure if it's out there, HOD will find it! :)
