by themselves to the laptop or tablet rather pc, a laptop and lose a key feature as writing or drawing, it will help improve the overall acquisition of knowledge to the student, there must be materials for use in this new medium, which by itself is an instrument .
Change text books ebooks will step classrooms definitive scan, that is due to the following factors:
1. Teachers need guidance materials to facilitate teaching a subject in digital media, it is unrealistic to think that all teachers will develop their own digital materials, mainly by two factors, time and training. Furthermore, this work has been developed over the years by publishers and it is difficult to take it on, otherwise it is not timely, the staff.
2. Internet by itself is not enough, we must not forget that the resources we can find on the net are complements or support a concept or topic of a subject
3. The digital boards allow all resources together in the classroom, both digital and traditional. Allow the "explanation" traditional, digital materials to generate or gather the professor and consulting resources located on the Internet, but it is essential to have a theme based on the course, work currently carried out textbooks.
above means that sooner or later the traditional publishers will be raised to replace the traditional textbook by ebooks. The development of this approach is not without difficulties mainly by vested economic interests, as ebooks are cheaper and require adaptation to a new form of business from traditional publishers. However, publishers who are already making deep inroads into the digital format of textbooks, an example is Digital-Text , Baherumi trademark of Digital SL , that with the support of the Catalan Government are introducing digital books in the classroom. This implementation is not exclusively in Catalan Schools and centers are in other communities that have chosen it.
Hector Ruiz belongs to Digital-Text explains in the newspaper La Razón ( see full article )
"Using this technology does not mean that every child should have a computer in class, but that it would be simply that the teacher had one and used a projector; the class schema does not change, but it saves time because the explanations require less effort, accompanied by projected visuals. The information is divided into smaller blocks, but not more simple. "Language proficiency is not lost or reduced. Paper and pen are still used, for example, mathematical equations, dictates. It combines traditional writing with writing on PC. The important thing is that children learn to write, in the grammatical sense ", explains Héctor Ruiz. But undoubtedly, the biggest advantage is its price. Currently 30 euros per year have access to all the books that make up the course integer. But books are also available loose for about eight euros and in the future, from Digital Text are considering the possibility of renting individual chapters. "
Furthermore SM Editorial , traditional editorial sector, has also recently introduced digital textbooks (book interactive network): "For this course, SM material has launched a comprehensive curriculum developed by the Environmental Awareness of Primary 5, for Aragon, Madrid and Andalusia Social Science and Natural Sciences for 1 º ESO, in Catalonia. This offer will be progressively extended until all the materials that comprise the catalog of SM books for Kindergarten, Primary and Secondary Education. " (See full article )
