The Advent Of The E-Book!

Recently, I responded to an article that was published in the Stabroek News Online recently. It said that President Jagdeo of Guyana wanted to spend 30 million dollars on computer purchases for families.

I suggested in my response to this intention, that it would be a very good idea too, if Primary and Secondary school's children were given First Priority. And be made to pay about fifty dollars each, to help the state defray the cost per computer too.

However, upon reflection on this issue later, I also realized that E-Books are also a good facility to help students download Educational materials prescribed by Lecturer and Teachers Online. Which will also help directly, more students get the much desired/prescribed reading materials that the Lecturer recommended them to research for Essay writing or Long Paper assignments.

Conclusion:

Whichever medium (be it computers or E-Books) that the state provides, I still feel that the E-Books are the better choice for all students in Secondary Schools, and Colleges/Universities.
