In summary, an open high school physics textbook is a free online textbook created by a team of educators and licensed under an open license. It differs from traditional textbooks in its availability, collaborative creation, and constant updates. These textbooks are of the same quality as traditional textbooks and can be accessed through various websites or school repositories. They can also be freely used, shared, and adapted for teaching or learning purposes.
