The future for textbooks in Ridgefield?

Education’s future seemed on display — online textbooks with virtual manipulatives, animations and assessments, personal computer tutors available at the click of mouse. But that future isn’t now — or, if it is, Ridgefield’s not jumping all the way in. Seventh graders will be getting a new math textbook with the jazzy online presence, Math Connects: Course 2 by Glencoe McGraw-Hill. While they’ll be getting ink and paper versions of the book, and a related workbook, they’ll also be able to access the book’s online version from their home computers.
