Isnt the information in the textbooks relevant to the childs education in school?
A. Frequently it is not. Everyone learns differently. For example some people are left-brain dominant, which means that they are good with words and numbers. Others are right-brain dominant, which means that they are very creative, but often have difficulty learning from a book. When a student is allowed to be in charge of his own education, he will choose the methods most conducive to his learning.
