摘要
The electronic books, or e-Books, offer students, teachers and schools an additional medium or tool of instructions that can support or enhance the learning process. All this while, the use of e-Books is limited to college students. Using e-Books as text books in the classroom at schools is a new paradigm especially in developing countries. As with all books, there are various types of e-Books available to suit students' knowledge, characteristics, abilities, and interests. The paper provides some insight on what an e-Books is, and its advantages, limitations, strategies and framework of using it as a text book in classrooms. (C) 2012 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
