And Apple I'm afraid is more about monopolizing. So in that sense, I think "free" ibook is inherently flawed in concept. As far as CK12 is concerned, the reason behind their genesis is passion not business like iBooks. Plus CK12 has been involved in some brilliant projects like the Utah Open Book project, LPS and the like and there has been verifiable success in most of them. But the real point is that unless you are able to make your technology accessible to everyone on every platform, you are not in it for revolution or even evolution of the way education is delivered and consumed.jim millernoreply@blogger.com
