Down_the_Rabbit_Hole Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Can teaching textbook be used with just the text? Is the lesson scripted in the book or is all the teaching on the disks? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in TX Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 Dd used the Geometry book this way--we did not purchase the dvds and she did fine. I'm not sure this would work for all TT courses though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creekland Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I'm not sure with version 2.0. We used the original high school books and it was perfectly ok to go DVD free then, but if you wanted solutions solved, they were only on the DVD. If you were ok with just answers, they were with the book. Two of my three boys preferred them without the DVD lectures. Middle son (my highest achiever) loved the lectures. Each kid is different.

missmoe Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 I think just the books are fine, but the draw of the program for me is the solutions are provided step by step on the disks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Down_the_Rabbit_Hole Posted June 5, 2012 Author Share Posted June 5, 2012 Can you buy just the solutions DVD and not the lessons? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momtotkbb Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 We actually have found in Alg 2 at least a couple times where info was on the DVD and not included in the book. My kids prefer to not listen to the lecture - but if they have problems I require that they listen to the DVD and if they get a problem incorrect they have to go through the solutions on the DVD's to see where they made their error.

MIch elle Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 We actually have found in Alg 2 at least a couple times where info was on the DVD and not included in the book. :iagree: With TT alg.1v.2, the BASIC info is always in the book but sometimes the DVDs have additional instruction that's not in the book. There is NO solution manual, only answer key and test bank in book form. Step by step solutions are only available on the dvds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
