South Korea's government has announced ambitious plans to digitize all textbooks in schools by 2015 as part of creating the world's first "smart education" system. The Ministry of Education will invest $2.4 billion to develop and provide e-learning and mobile-learning materials. First to transition will be elementary schools, which will switch to online content by 2014. Education officials want to ensure teachers are sufficiently trained to integrate the new technology into their classrooms and that digital devices and work can effectively work together.
