Re: [LM_NET] ELEM: What do you call this format?

[Shonda Brisco <sbrisco@GMAIL.COM>]

This is called "dual text" which is considered a way for publishers to
provide a "more bang for your buck" and to encourage the purchase of a
book that can be used by more than one reading level.

Here's some more information about this new style of writing:

I do like your idea of creating a bibliography of resources that
incorporate "dual text" formats---I'm sure that there will be a
significant increase in these types of books and a list would be nice.
 I'll have one of my student workers help me to do more research on
this.  Once we have some compiled, I'll send the link.

Enjoy!
