In my opinion, having textbooks available on an iPad is not going to change a thing besides making textbooks cheaper and easier to obtain for students. iPad textbooks will not revolutionize education. Apple is certainly a brilliant company, but iPad textbooks are not what education needs to be changed right now. That is not saying Apple won’t be able to revolutionize education in the future, but I do not think the company hit it this time. Education needs to be rethought from the core, and reapplied in this modern age.
