I compiled this chart showing the identical (or similar) paragraphs/units that are found between the various Notehand texts.
Since all three editions are out of print, I mainly did this to help the teacher match up lessons with my dictation recordings, for whichever text a student might happen to have. This chart will
also help with lesson planning by showing what material is unique to each edition (which is useful if
you are looking for additional practice without having to skim through
the text(s) to look for new material.) There is only so much available
for notehand out there!
