Unfortunately for many, school will be back in session soon, if it isn’t already. Reading textbooks and memorizing facts isn’t very interesting, we know (unless you’re Hermione Granger). On the bright side, there are lots of people looking into textbook alternatives and looking for new, creative (and hopefully more fun) ways to learn. For instance, Amplify Learning is working on all kinds of electronic learning projects, you can read a little about it here and at their website.
There’s also a lot of great open source education out there, like Khan Academy, Open Culture and websites like MathTV.
The library has tons of books on teaching and learning as well. Come in and check out the 370s.
