Would You Trade Your Paper Books for Digital Versions?
Write three paragraphs supporting your opinion.
Tell us your thoughts on the growing offerings in digital books and textbooks.
- I would continue using paper books because it is the traditional way. I wont knock the idea of using an Ipad, r e-reader but kid’s always get distracted from the initial topic and they won’t focus on their work. People are saying that kids shouldn’t spend much time in the computer or on the phone, and by turning our books from paper to electronically it’s just not helping out at all.
If everything is electronically based we are more dependent on technology, and we become lazy as individuals, and as a people. I think the paper books are very important because it forces the person to actually sit down and read. With e-reader it is possible to just look up the summary of a book, and people still do it with the paperbacks so whats to say that things will change. Reading is a choice and people will either read or not.
