Why is Ms. Steinbach so discouraged when she looks at the textbook and teacher's manual that Mr. Richardson ordered?

What will be an ideal response?


The textbook and teacher's manual appear to emphasize isolated facts, yet Ms. Steinbach wants her students to learn general geographic principles that are applicable to a variety of situations. In other words, Ms. Steinbach is hoping that her students will be able to transfer geography in their efforts to interpret what they see in the world around them. In a nutshell, Ms. Steinbach doesn't believe that the textbook and teacher's manual are consistent with her instructional objectives.
