1. Concern that the textbook is consumable because of the longevity needed for an adoption
2. In order to interact with the texts, students (and teachers) would need to be trained on how to use the website. How helpful is that if the test continues to be a hard copy. It is a different skill set than online testing.
3. Realistically my concerns are focused on the longevity of the textbook and the ease of the website. If the website is difficult to use, then it will be difficult to implement.

Tech:
~PDFs are not editable
~Information is not hyperlinked (to supplemental materials)
~A lot of the features we like are strictly available in the interactive, but this is dependent on the continued use of 1:1 devices and consistent wifi
ELs/Students with Disabilities:
~Very little support built into the physical textbook
~Vocab in text is bold, but easy blends into the materials and could be hard for students to spot
Teacher Guidance:
~Offers other texts and supplemental materials to explore but does not come with materials for them
Format:
~The consumable is silly: it will fall apart quickly so it really is meant for single student use, but there is no room in the margins or space for annotations and charts/diagrams are too small to fill in
