By Paul Biba

This article goes into great detail regarding etextbooks – reading methods, ereaders, laaptop reading, implementation, etc. Anyone who is interested in this area should take a look. Here’s the abstract and thanks to Resource Shelf, which is always a great font of information, for the link:

* A typical college student spends up to $1,000 per year on textbooks, and many students don’t buy textbooks at all because they’re too expensive.

* E-textbooks can cost up to 50 percent less than standard textbooks while providing the foundation for integration of multiple learning resources into a single delivery system.

* E-textbooks and their enhanced interactive learning resources also have the potential to accelerate student learning.
