Florida back-to-school shopping list, 2015

Pencils? Check. Notebook? Check? Kindle or Nook?!?

Yep. Florida lawmakers approved a move to digital textbooks in four years. Schools will be able to use standard textbooks until they need replacing. How soon before Michigan's lawmakers jump on this digital bandwagon? And if they do, what kind of new digital divide will be created in schools across the state?

Note to Floridians: Buy a Kindle via this site and part of the proceeds go towards buying real books for my students. Just sayin.
