Picture the scene: A form 3 student has to bring a heavy school bag everyday to school. A week later , the heavy and cumbersome filled bag caused idiopathic Scoliosis. A spine disorder for the form 3 student.
(Spelling ->Does) this seem to you or your schoolmates? (Seem? What do you mean?)
Has this happened to you or your schoolmates? It can be argued that idiopathic Scoliosis was not caused by carrying a heavy school bag on day to day basis, but I believe that this is not the student's fault but the school's and the textbook publishers'. They are responsible for the textbook's weight and the problems that may be caused from carrying them for too long.
You're not the textbook publishers, therefore you can only suggest and say it helps but not solve it, because you're not sure 100% it'll work.
I believe that something can be done to help this problem. For instance, the textbook publishers (Not must, you're not incharge, therefore you can only suggest) can seperate (We already know we print textbooks, no need to mention "print" again. But use seperate, meaning dividing the textbook up into many thinner booklets) the textbooks into several (Not different, because it is still the same textbook, on the same subject) booklets. This way, (No need to repeat the sentence again. Also you haven't finished explaining the point, so don't use full stop, but use combo - a pause) students will not to bring the whole booklet into school, and because of that the weight of their school bag should decrease. Simultaneously, the unnecessary parts of the textbook such as the blank pages and introduction should be taken out of the textbook. By canceling the unnecessary parts of the textbook, it will reduce the overall weight. Personally, textbook publishers can use lighter paper to print textbooks. Although, this method would increase the production cost, but it is an easy and effective way of reducing the overall textbook weight compare to cancelling out unnecessary pages. (Don't say use comparison words like "effective" when you're not actually comparing it with anything else.)
Read it and ask me if you have any questions. I'll finish the 2nd half later :]
