From what I know, If you tried your independent study without the internet, It would be near impossible, even though in the old days they never had the internet. For a start, The pages of the independent study would be a lot less, due to lack of information. If you had an open topic, however, in a decent library you could find lots of information.
For my last year's topic, I wouldve been stuffed without the internet. You dont exactly find lots of books on constellations. This year, however, as a historical figure, there would be many books on Captain Cook as it is a lot more open.
Also, You wouldnt be able to copy and paste from wikipedia *Looks at a few people in the classroom*
A lot of us would be stuffed for Independent Studies.
