I think ebooks would be a great substitute for text books. Students would have reference materials right there to look up unknown words or mark important information. They can also have the material read to them which I think is the best feature. Students who struggle to read are often held back in other subjects. Now, students can focus on the information, not with their frustration from decoding the text.
I was impressed with the number of free books. I think high school and college students would benefit from them the most. Many of them looked like higher level and classic novels. This would be a good resource for families who can't afford to have many books in the home. If they have a school provided iPad, they now have access to an entire library.
