There is a growing buzz in the educational sphere around digital textbooks. Since the launch of
iBooks 2 and
iBooks Author and the educational technology experts are investigating the potential of these new revolutionary tools. Google is not disassociated from the scene and it is trying to take a foothold with a huge project called Chrome books. So the question that really needs an urgent answer is : are we in front of a ferocious competition between Google and Apple to gain more sales via investing in education or is it really the beginning of a digital revolution in education?
Anyway I can not provide an answer yet as it is too early to judge the intentions behind these huge moves but what is really amazing is the fact that the infographic world is keeping track of these innovations and is providing us with awesome infographics too. The Digital Classroom is an example. There are quite many others that cover this issue and that I have included in previous posts here, you can check out
