PLEASE NOTE: The Digital Warp is a rolling release and still in production.  Final versions of this edition for each unit are expected to be completed and posted on the Unit pages in July of 2024.  Any customer purchasing the Digital Warp between now and July of 2024 will receive immediate access to the current digital version (which is three-quarters complete) for planning purposes, and will receive access to the full digital version as soon as it becomes available in July.

Description

Digital Warp provides access to your choice of four digital and downloadable PDF Warp Reader texts (Year 1, Year 2, Year 3, or Year 4).  Your Digital Warp files can be found on the Tapestry Unit Pages (NOTE: They are not on the Warp pages).

Please note that while this edition of these products will contain some information for Worldviews and Literature and may contain some information for Fine Arts, Philosophy, and Government, it does not necessarily include as many articles on those topics as you will find in the Online Warp subscription at this time.  For the Digital Warp we only promise complete articles in History and some resource maps in Geography.

The text included in this digital version of the Warp will provide enough information to cover your year’s study in Dialectic and Rhetoric History as taught in the Teacher’s Notes (aside from texts specifically mentioned in the discussion scripts).  You might choose to use it in any of the following ways:

  • Light Use: Use the Digital Warp as a teacher reference for background notes and video links.
  • Medium Use: In addition, replace a few one-week or two-week Topic Books from our Booklist by having your student read the text for that week from the Digital Warp instead.  In this model, you would still purchase and use all of the regular History Spine Books listed below because they are referenced in student History questions.
  • Heavy Use: In addition to the uses already mentioned, have your student use the Digital Warp as his Spine Book for History throughout the year.  Only purchase the History books from the list below that you want to add to your permanent library.  Modify, or Instruct your student to skip, any Accountability or Thinking questions that he cannot answer directly from the Warp and the books you have chosen.

If you still want to read all the books mentioned in Accountability or Thinking Questions in the Student Activity Pages, you will need most of the Primary Source History books in addition to the Digital Warp:
