This article explores the role and importance of e-textbooks in
improving the quality of education. It also recommended the shortcomings and
problems that we currently facing and necessary actions to be taken.
Key words and expressions:
e-textbooks, components, tendency, interactivity,
didactic study, lesson process, animation.
The simplest e-books are simply a digital version of the actual physical book.
They are no more than a PDF or some such. They do not come with any extra features
other than what you get with the platform on which you are reading the ebook. These
may include a dictionary to check terms or the capacity to annotate the book or take
notes separately. In other e-books, there are interactive activities incorporated into the
process to check whether the reader has comprehended the material, or whether there
has been any improvement in their grammar or vocabulary.
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
eBooks 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- at an e-Books
is, and its advantages, limitations, strategies and framework of using it as a text book
in classrooms.
Now that we know what eBooks are, let us see how they can be used in the
classroom. How would you use eBooks in the classroom? Your answer will likely
depend on many different factors including the grade level of the students and
resource availability.
E-books in the Elementary Classroom: a smart board serves as a whiteboard and
computer all in one. It projects digital content for group viewing. Many smart
322

boards have speakers to integrate sound into presentations as well as integrated touch
technology. A student can turn the pages of an eBook by swiping his or her hand
across the screen of a smart board. Of course, eBooks are not limited to smart boards.
Students can access them on classroom computers, laptops, tablets or ereaders, small,
portable, tablet style devices designed strictly for reading. The options are nearly
endless for the use of eBooks in primary education.
The use of media to enhance teaching and learning complements traditional
approaches to learning. Effective instruction builds bridges between students'
knowledge and the learning objectives of the course. Using media engages students,
aids student retention of knowledge, motivates interest in the subject matter, and
illustrates the relevance of many concepts.
Media can be a component of active learning strategies such as group
discussions or case studies. Media could be a film clip, a song you hear on the radio,
podcast of a lecture or newspaper article. Students can also create their own media.
For example, student video projects can be a powerful learning experience.

enables
students to see concepts and new examples
when they are watching television,
listening to music, or are at the movies with friends. Students can
experience worlds
beyond their own
, especially if the media is sharply different from their local
environment.
Students will be reading these apps on a smartphone or tablet, or some other
kind of smart device. These have various capabilities, like voice recording
capabilities, or video recording capabilities. They are also able to support many free
apps that can turn what is basically a passive and receptive lesson into something
where the student interacts continuously with the book and even engage the creative
process to come up with their creations as part of the learning

process.Once students create their own work, they can share them in the form of an
email or a blog that is dedicated to classroom activities.
Here are five simple ways that teachers are using ebooks to enhance classroom
learning and development.
1.
Entice with pre-reading teasers
Pre-reading tasks play the role of motivating the learner, especially when
students are asking Why do I need to learn this? says Thomas Wood
Before you present a topic to any learners, you will need to prove its relevance
to their lives and future. Pose questions that intrigue them. Encourage students to do
a little research. By the time they are tackling the actual book, they are more prepared
to learn.
2.
Enrich with multimedia
E-books don’t just include text. They often include other forms of media that
you wouldn’t find in a print book: audio, video, and 3D models.
Foreign languages come to life as students hear the strange new words and
sentences pronounced naturally. Stories of historic events enter our world and
imagination with videos. Science labs become more tangible when 3D models are
available for students to explore. Media enriches lessons and imagination for students
and teachers alike.
3.
Engage with Interactive Content
While a print book is passive and depends on the memory of the student alone,
an e-book is interactive and pulls readers into interactive games, questions, and even
online discussions, enticing students to engage with the e-book. Kinesthetic learners
no longer feel alienated by dull passive-learning books.
4.
Provide Countless Resources
Expand the resources you make available for your students. With a simple
phone, tablet, or e-reader, a student can carry the equivalent of an entire library in the
palm of their hands, which means they have access to a lot more material than they
would have otherwise. Teachers can curate the lists of recommended readings and
with so many free school ebooks, students become independent self-learners.

5.
Open Doorways to E-learning
E-books are only one kind of digital technology among many out there, and
they help to introduce the students to the wonderful world of digital learning.
Students can begin blogging, vlogging, creating their own ebooks or event their
own apps. Sharing and collaborative platforms facilitate discussions and often form
a launching pad for students to begin student-initiated and driven projects.
The argument over whether children’s digital books count as educational story
time or just screen time has been going on for a while. Given that digital interactive
books (often called story apps) are hybrids of books, short films and digital games,
their educational value largely depends on whether they are used to promote specific
literacy skills or just to have fun with a story.
Many schools have begun to use ipads, Google Chrome books and other
portable touch screens in lessons, giving children more opportunities to access digital
books and storyapps. Accessing an interactive digital book is a different experience
from clicking through an e-book on the desktop PC and many teachers, especially
those in primary schools, are legitimately questioning the value of using these
resources in their literacy lessons.Digital books with interactive features such as
games and hotspots (areas in the digital text or image which act as hyperlinks,
activated by tapping on the screen) have been found to impede children’s story
comprehension and vocabulary learning. Yet, there is also evidence to suggest that
children are attracted to and motivated to read those digital books which are fun and
personalisable and that children do access such books at home.
This means the best ones in an educational context have high-quality texts as
well as a digitally enhanced narrative and open up the world of imagination, with
possibilities for children to be creative and explore their own ways into a story or
literacy activity. Digital books which can meet both objectives are therefore likely to
be successful.
Conclusion.
E-books are the future of the classroom, along side many other
kinds of digital technology. With the variety of interactive content in ebooks, learning
becomes easier for all types of learners: auditory, visual, kinesthetic and
325
even tactile learners. While physical reading materials will always have their allure,
ebooks add a new and revolutionary dimension that your students will definitely come
to enjoy. It will also make your life easier as a teacher during your all lessons.
