We don't need digital textbooks any more than we needed paper textbooks.

This is a big mistake:
The maker of the iPhone is discussing ways to include McGraw-Hill and Hachette e-book titles on its tablet, due to be introduced Jan. 27
If Apple really wanted to help out in education, it's new tablet would automatically erase e-textbooks.

We don't need digital textbooks any more than we needed paper textbooks.

Kids need primary sources and smart teachers, not manufactured questions and one-size-fits-all standards.
