Straighterline Business Statistics

cookderosa Wrote:I used to use Robinson Curriculum, and back then, the only books you could get were either antique (1900) or you would print them out. So, I painstakingly printed out 200+ books, bound and covered them for our Robinson library. (this is no longer the case, but "how to print RC books" was a big part of my life for a long time). Anyway, 2 suggestions you may or may not already know about. 1) you need a duplexing laser printer. I've owned 2 - both Brothers. My current one is th HL-L2320D (on Brother printers, the "D" means duplex - which means double sided). I buy cheap laser toner for about $15 and that prints over 2300 pages. If you are inclined, you can buy cases of paper that has been 3 hole punched and keep your books in 3-ring binders. I bound mine with floss and contact cement - cardstock covers, but haven't done that in a decade. My second suggestion is the one I do now, which is to download the ebook to my computer and send it to Staples/Office Max/Office Depot. I get 20% off print job mailers all the time. Rack rate is $10 per 100 printed pages on twenty-pound white. It's not a terrible price, but it's better with a coupon Wink


Great suggestions - since I've been homeschooling for 15 years, I learned a long while ago about the importance of a good duplex printer and cheap generic toner. If anyone else prints a bunch, you just have to do this - and for the love of all that is good in the world, ditch the inkjet printer! Pre-punched paper is amazing as well if you intend to use binders - the last time I printed a 300 page book and had to sit there with my 3-hole-punch, I wanted to smash things by the time I was done.

It looks like my son may end up taking Stats via Study.com rather than SL at this point - but it's still up in the air.
Here Researching for my son, who has done the following:
Community College: Intro to Philosophy, Fundamentals of IT, English Comp 1
Saylor: Intro to Business, Principles of  Marketing, Corporate Communication
Shmoop: US History 2 (WGU won't accept this)
ALEKS: Int. Algebra, College Algebra
Study.com: Personal Finance, Principles of Finance, HR Management, Global Business, Advanced Operations Management
Straighterline: US History 2, Environmental Science, US History, Microeconomics, Macroeconomics, English Comp 2, Principles of Management, Business Law, Business Ethics, Psychology, Organizational Behavior, Accounting 1,Communication, Managerial Accounting, Statistics
Ed4Credit: Managing Information Systems
Sophia: Project Management
WGU: Bachelors in HR Management 

Second son is currently attending Penn Foster for his high school diploma, then on to Ashworth for An Associates in Criminal Justice
