Dear Professor...

E-books expand the possibilities of higher education and can revolutionize the education process with engaging and interactive tools which speak to this generation of scholars. Professors can pick and choose readings and interactive devices from many different sources without passing on the cost to the students and make them purchase all these sources. Numerous times over the last three years, I have bought a book only to find the professor uses a couple of chapters or worse never uses it at all. I believe e-books are a viable solution to this problem. By having textbooks on a digital medium, the information is more up to date and thus more relevant. No longer with e-books will we have to buy the "new edition", professors will be able to update their curriculum without waiting for a new cycle of publishing.

“What’s really terrific about e-books,” says Rik Kranenburg, president of McGraw-Hill’s Higher Education, Professional and International Group, “is that the technology lends itself to all kinds of new applications and learning formats—new ways that students learn, and instructors can use and integrate the technology to instruct.”

Plus Professor, our brains like e-books better...
