Kno Study Finds Students Prefer Digital To Print

Digital textbook publishing company  Kno released the results of a study this week in which they revealed that 95% of students find the Kno app very useful and will use it again.
Obviously since the company did the survey about themselves for their product, it should be taken with a grain of salt. But there are some stats in the report that are interesting. For instance, 3 out of 4 the respondents said that reading, annotating and search were all better on Kno than using a physical book, suggesting an affinity for digital textbooks over print among college students.
The study also found that 61% chose Kno for convenience and mobility of book and 97% of students have used one or more interactive features including video, interactive homework and images.
