This article presents the current trend of some K-12 schools going digital, in terms of using digital textbooks and e-books. The article discusses two high performing Illinois high schools that went digital. The authors investigate which electronic devices were most preferred by faculty and students, and provide pointers and procedures for managing technology as a school begins to make the transition.
