We use Chalkdust for our course. We are currently using their Algebra I course. The Prof. (who does the videos) has suggested moving to Geometry next rather than doing Algebra II (some public schools use this sequence - Alg. I, Alg. II and THEN geometry). He has a Geometry program so we will carry on with Chalkdust. We love it. Jacobs, of course, has a Geometry text as well. If you are not mathy, ask dr. Callahan has dvd lectures that accompany the Jacob's text. At least this is what I recall...don't hold me to it. at any rate, I would do geometry next and then alg. 2 if this is what you are asking. If you are seeking a curriculum, I say stick with what is working and carry on with Jacob's! Just my $0.02
