7. ❖ Student performance does not vary between print and
e-textbook (Sheppard, Grace, & Koch, 2008; Woody, Daniel, & Baker, 2010).
❖ Various presentation modes do not affect
comprehension(Margolin, Driscoll, Toland, & Kegler, 2013).
❖ Annotation features of an e-textbook enhances student
performance (Dennis, 2011).
❖ People understand and remember better when reading
paper (Liu, 2005; Mangen, Walgermo, & Bronnick, 2013).
8. Challenges and Affordances
❖ Lack of comfort with
screen reading (Carlson, 2005).

24. Reasons for e-Textbook
Preference
Reasons for Print Textbook
Preference
available search features familiarity with the format
digital notes features eyestrain with screen reading
lower cost distractions when reading online
light weight
connection to physical movement of
page turning
25. An
e-‐textbook
can
often
lead
me
to
distraction
(Facebook,
Pinterest,
etc.).
Also
there
is
something
about
print
textbooks
that
puts
me
in
the
mindset
of
‘study’.
I
like
highlighting
and
putting
sticky
notes
in
my
[print]
books.
When
done
electronically,
the
physical
movement
is
absent
so
I
sometimes
feel
like
it
doesn’t
help
me.
When
recalling
information,
it
is
easier
for
me
to
remember
when
it’s
tied
to
a
physical
movement.
27. My
own
reading
habits
worsened
while
reading
this
e-‐
textbook.
I
am
used
to
skimming
on
the
computer.
I
carried
this
same
habit
to
the
e-‐textbook.
It
was
more
difHicult
to
get
absorbed
in
reading.
I
noticed
I
was
more
intrigued
about
reading
the
text.
It
wasn’t
like
I
was
just
sitting
with
a
book
in
my
hand.
28. I
was
more
relaxed
with
the
e-‐textbook.
Sometimes
I
forgot
I
was
reading
a
textbook.
I
had
to
train
my
brain
to
think
critically
when
reading
because
usually
when
I’m
on
a
device
it’s
for
recreation.
The
linked
deHinitions
are
extremely
helpful.
This
allows
for
reading
Hluency
as
I
don’t
have
to
access
another
source
or
turn
a
page
to
Hind
a
deHinition.
I
really
liked
the
search
function
because
it
took
you
right
to
where
you
needed
to
go.
30. Opening
a
new
chapter
in
this
online
text
is
a
bit
more
intimidating
for
me
because
it
shows
the
list
of
sections
to
the
side,
and
there
are
sometimes
many.
I’ve
started
previewing
and
picture
walking
before
I
read
this
text
in
response.
I
believe
my
reading
habits
improved
because
the
text
was
spread
out.
I
read
the
text
normally
but
I
went
back
and
looked
at
the
text
again
to
make
sure
I
didn’t
miss
something.
31. I
tended
to
open
up
links
so
I
was
easily
distracted.
As
a
reader,
next
time
I
would
be
stricter
on
myself
and
not
allow
myself
to
browse
on
other
sites
while
reading.
32. ❖ avoid making assumptions
❖ teaching and modeling
❖ sharing personal experiences
❖ offering students choice
Teachers can promote e-textbook reading by . . .
33. Discussion
Does
digital
text
affect
how
readers
see
themselves,
their
self-‐ef6icacy,
expectations
for
success
as
a
reader?
How
can
teachers
honor
students’
learning
and
reading
preferences?
How
can
e-‐textbook
authors
and
publishers
create
materials
that
also
honor
students’
preferences?
