Hi
As a new subscriber to this list I'd be interested in any comments on text book design for first year undergraduate students. The students I work with are reluctant to buy a text book, or even take one out of the library. They read slowly and prefer short articles, especially if delivered to them on-line. I'd be interested in any research into text book use, or examples of good practice in text book design and style.
