expressed his opinion: "I appreciate the creativity of the project to develop
students' capacity. This is also the orientation of the fundamental and
comprehensive reform of education and training. The authors are all young, but
have shown an interest in the innovation of the program - current high school
textbooks, which is very much appreciated. Many products make teaching and
experimental tools, and apply information technology in teaching and learning

mass production and commercialization, the authors need to improve and create
competitiveness when put on the market. The members of the jury also said that
