Yes, you do need the textbook (Immediately) for the course which is listed in the syllabus. It’s available at the LSCK bookstore or any Lone Star College bookstore. Get it NOW so you can have it when class starts. It is the 2022-2023 edition.

Be prepared to view this material, take notes in class, and, act on it. You must know your Lone Star login information. I’m not sure we will have computers in our class, so bring your laptop, tablet, cell phone, etc.
