“…Applying digital media technologies 5 to traditional print textbooks has resulted in the emergence of e-texts (Stone & Baker-Eveleth, 2013a), which can be accessed via the Internet and downloaded onto personal electronic devices such as the laptops, tablets, e-readers, and smartphones that are owned by the vast majority of learners today (Rockinson-Szapkiw, Courduff, Carter, & Bennett, 2013). In fact, even though e-books have existed in some form or other since the 1970sstarting with Michael Hart launching his Project Gutenberg in 1971 that led to the creation of electronic versions of thousands of print books (Embong, Noor, Hashim, Ali, & Shaari, 2012)they only started being adopted in significant numbers after the development of the aforementioned devices (Ditmyer, et al, 2012) and their subsequently ubiquitous penetration into human society. Devices such as iPads are increasingly playing a leading role in the educational process within developed/affluent nations, and along with ematerials/e-texts are forming the basis of electronic education in these societies (Laketa & Draculic, 2015).…”
