Online Learning: E-books could save students money - Ethan Walker, Univesity of Minnesota Duluth
I was one of the lucky ones this semester. I spent $292.50 on my school textbooks. For many years college students have bought textbooks at outrageously high prices and watched as those prices continued to soar while their bank accounts barely manage to stay afloat. It appears that this trend may change with a new development in digital textbooks. That development involves Macmillan, one of the largest textbook manufacturing companies in the world, which has now opened the door for teachers to sort through textbooks and cater them to their specific online classes.
