starp citu, par kalifornijas terminatoru es sajūsminos aizvien vairāk un vairāk:
"Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger today launched an initiative
to make California the first state in the nation to offer schools
free,
open-source digital textbooks for high school students. The Governor directed
his Secretary of Education Glen Thomas to ensure these resources are available
for use in high school math and science classes by fall 2009, a critical first
step in helping ensure digital textbooks are widely available to all California
students.
“As California’s budget crisis continues we must find such
innovative ways to save money and improve services,” said Governor
Schwarzenegger. “California was built on innovation and I’m proud of our
state’s continued leadership in developing education technology.
This
first-in-the-nation initiative will reduce education costs, help encourage
collaboration among school districts and help ensure every California student
has access to a world-class education.”
tetieši tāpat digitalizācija pie mums ar laiiku varētu samazināt arī materiālos izdevumus par izglītību pamat/vidusskolās, grāmatu ir daudz un tās ir dārgas
upd: es, protams, saprotu, ka grāmatu bizness brēks pretī, taču nahuj nahuj to visu mācību grāmatu biznesu
