urgent: what is the difference between instructor's edition and student edition college textbook?

Question

I know that instructor's editions have a smaller font because there are additional comments and footnotes on the margins,
but do they have the same exact reading text than the student's edition, or is less? ie. summarized?
(the reason why i ask is because the teacher's edition is cheaper than the student's)

Answer 1

Teacher's Edition use a smaller font for the text that the student edition has because there are margins with information such as suggested studies, vocabulary, questions and answers in the margins.
The teacher's edition has all that the student edition has with the additional instructional material.

Answer 2

yes there is a difference, but ask your prof. to see if you can use another version. sometimes, there actually is addition material, but most of the time it's just a section chopped out while the rest of the book is identical. Once in a while the school text includes an online resource or access to a class site that u'll have to buy separately or see if the the bundle's cheaper. As for editions, you can get away with older editions but you should double check the publishers to see if there were any major changes. Be very careful when you do this with math since it's so important for the problems to the be the same. ' Sometimes you don't even need to get the book.

Instructor Edition Textbooks

Answer 4

the teacher's edition has all the answers!!! JK! The text is the same, but there is more information around the margins. The pages will be numbered differently due to the font size, but you should be able to see what the page numbers are from the shrunken images of the student edition. I would buy the teacher's edition if it was cheaper. also, never buy from your school's bookstore. they charge an arm and a leg for books. You can often find the exact same book for LESS THAN HALF the price of a book purchased from the school.

Answer 5

The reading text is usually the same, but the teacher's edition will have additional matterial in it. If in doubt, (and it could depend upon the subject matter) get a copy of each one and compare them.
Teacher's editions often have the answers to the questions, and your teacher might not be happy about you having that.....

Answer 6

The difference is that the teacher's edition has ALL of the answers in the back. The footnotes are extended. They have that so that they don't have to think and remember. They earned that. But you DO have to think and remember. Get the students' version. That is why you are there in the first place. good luck.

the only thing you can do is email your professor and ask him if its possible to use an older edition of the book. i do that for some classes, but not for others. it depends on the class. sometimes i even wait for the first day to assess how often i will need the book. for most schools you can even find sites where students from your school sell their textbooks for cheaper.

Answer 8

Depends, My teacher's editions are the same for most courses, have a different cover for others, and some added material for others.

Answer 9

The instructors edition usually includes answers and suggetions for workbook and activities.

a discount, and she may be infuential in choosing a textbook from the company. Comprende? Bueno
