The current kit is comprehensive. . .I find a seamless synergy between booth the text and kit . Students have easy accessibility while reading about the topics and making the connections to the actual fabrics. The synergy reinforces their learning of the content., {A digital swatch library] would/could be a fantastic resource to include in lectures, seminars and workshops. . .Back and front view would strengthen the delivery of the information within the lecture, seminar and/or workshop environment., I love lots and lots of swatches, anything that cycles into and out of fashion as well as the classics. I think the number and assortment of swatches are good for two reasons. First, they align with the focus of the text, which is those fabrics used in the industry. Second, the depth of analysis required for each swatch fits with the "science" part of fabric science and makes for a reliable resource for students in the future., A digital swatch library would be helpful and it is important that the swatches align exactly with the kit. Students often have difficulty assembling their kits (even though we do it together as a class!). Today's students expect to have a digital resource.
