NeedOver the last 10 years, technology has changed greatly.
Internet has gone from being connected to wirelessCellular phones have gone from being only for phone calls to
small computers that connect the user to all over the world through the World Wide Web.
Computers have gone from being large desktop models to small 7” tablet size.
Cell phones and computers have gone from being owned by just a few to now most teenagers and adults in the United States have one.
Information comes to in small amounts and is not dependent on books or television networks, but is available to anyone connected to the World Wide Web and especially Social Networks.

NeedOur students, especially our upper elementary and
middle school students, have grown up in a world where they use technology on a daily basis at home.
Students play video games and educational games and watching videos on their home computers, and they use the computers to help complete their homework. According to National Science Foundation, 78% of fourth graders and 84% of eighth graders and among students receiving Free and Reduced Lunches 62% and 67% have computers at home in 2004.

NeedKnowing that
these are changing times for our students, our schools need to make changes to keep our students interested and to support their new learning styles.

Change Many Schools are doing
so by having the use of computers in the classroom and more and more schools are introducing 1:1 computers, so that each student can have their own computer to use at school.

ChangeOne major change in
education to help support these new type of learners is switching from traditional books that each student carries to a on-line version of information, whether it is a textbook from an educational publisher or Flexible versions that teachers are able to customize to fit their situations.

ChangeThe change to digital textbooks has to come
from the top of Education, including the U.S. Department of Education and each individual State Department of Education.
Local levels of education may have the desire to introduce digital textbooks, but without help and permission from upper levels of government, it can be more difficult.

ChangeChange has to happen, just not at school, but
also at home and in communities.

Change22 states have grouped together to form the
National Association of State Textbook Association (NASTA) to help with adoption of textbooks.
This organization has adopted the definition of “instructional materials” to include digital/electronic formats.
Other states have changed their educational laws to either require switching to digital textbooks or encourage the use of digital textbooks.

Change The ACT will be offered in an On-Line version starting in 2015 according to
an article in the New York Times with Jon Erickson, president of ACT’s educational division.
“We are moving to a computer-based version, but for the foreseeable future, we will also have the paper and pencil test as an option for schools that
don’t have the technological capability,” said Jon Erickson, the president of ACT’s Education Division. “We will probably have the option for students to
choose paper and pencil, as well. But all the anecdotal evidence is that students prefer the computer.”

Styles of Digital TextbooksTraditional Textbook Publishers have on-line
versions of their published textbooks available for purchase to use with the textbooks. They offer the full textbook on line plus links to supporting websites and materials. There is usually a one click glossary so students can see the definition of the vocabulary words that are in the readings.

Styles of Digital TextbooksCK-12 FlexbooksCK-12 Vision Statement:We need to go from today’s “fixed time, variable learning” to a
“variable time, fixed learning” model or even better, “maximum capability learning” within a teacher’s constraints of standards compliance and other administrative rules in their region. This new model adapts to each student level, style, and circumstance while leveraging new digital tools to answer the most fundamental questions: “What can digitization do for the textbook?” and “What can digitization do for learning?” instead of the more mundane “How can the textbook become digital?”.
