the educational terrain

What will the educational terrain look like after this financial fallout passes? Like anything else, this too shall pass. Will universities be forced to apply unconventional tactics in order to stay competitive and out of the red? Fewer students might be a reality, salary freezes, consolidations, and more. Universities may even decide to explore a way to transform the textbook culture during these tough economic times by providing a digital solution. Many institutions are making hard decisions in order to cut cost. How can digital tools reduce cost and transform the textbook market on campuses across the country? I have been reading up on the Amazon Kindle (digital book reader) and it has great potential. Whatever direction the education sector takes, you can bet that at the heart of this transformation will be the driving force of innovation.
