The Future of E-textbooks: A Symposium on the Influence of E-textbooks on Academic Life

The Future of E-textbooks: A Symposium on the Influence of E-textbooks on Academic Life "will consider various questions about teaching, learning, and technology, as well as the economics and future business models of the e-textbook market. Organizers say the arrival of Smart Boards, personal computers, and wireless printers has begun to change the way that students interact with faculty and academic content. In addition, the recent arrival of e-readers, tablet PCs, and smart phones may bring with it the end of printed textbooks" - March 18, 2011 - University of Michigan, USA
