The Mac Observer:
By comparison, you’d spend around $800 for an iPad 2 and a new textbook each year for those four basic courses. You’d get more up-to-date materials, interactive learning, and a smaller footprint in your luggage for those long-distance field trips. And, you’d spend half as much for that learning experience as you would using traditional books.
Interesting, I hadn’t considered the impact on home schooling.
I’m a homeschooling parent (well, really, my wife is…I just pay the bills), so it was a bit of a no-brainer 🙂
It’s a pity we face the same issues with iBooks as we do with music, movies and television. Their is a paucity of selection for international customers; allot of parents here would love such convenient access to English language materials.
