Why isn't my child bringing home a textbook?

Why isn't my child bringing home a textbook?




This question was asked at last week's Parent-Teacher Conferences.  The short answer is that I have more students for Physics and for AP Physics 1 than there are Physics texts at Collins HS.  The longer answer is that with the strategic initiative and students getting Macbook Air's next year, I'm working to come up with a digital solution.

I do not have an e-text version of the AP Physics 1 textbook.  But I do have PowerPoint presentations that go with each chapter.  I can put them into a shareable folder and students can download them there.

For regular Physics I do have a PDF version of the text.  Again I will put that into a shareable folder.

I'm hoping this fills a gap for students looking for a reference.
