#1368: "Tietz - A 21st Century Textbook"

Just about every school in the US, maybe even the world has some basic items. Chairs and desks and bathrooms with unusual aromas. They also have textbooks. Now, the editor of one of the most respected science textbooks in the world is hoping to revolutionize the way textbooks are put together.

Today on the Best of Our Knowledge we’ll talk about the latest version of the Tietz Textbook.

We’ll also go to a camp where girls are encouraged to build and become engineers…and we’ll spend an academic minute thinking about extinction.
