Textbooks

There is two different sides to this side.

Positive Side: Textbooks are the only thing I feel comfortable with when it comes to learning. They allow students the opportunity to read and explore problems as a whole. Teachers are gaurenteed to know where and what their students are doing in the classroom. They are able to carry their textbook up to the board to demonstrate a problem.

Down Side: Textbooks are a pain to carry around. My child is having back problems. We have to renew textbooks in our school system every few years. They are a waste of trees. We could use the money for textbooks for other things.

There are tons of different things that you could come up with for this side of the argument. However I feel like every student should use textbooks. If it was up to me I would make all my students use textbooks instead of computers.
