The expensive textbooks, often costing as much as $300-$400, only compound the problem.

All of it	Some of it	I prefer reading on paper		I wanted to take notes on the page						Not sure	I was able to access it whenever i wanted as it was conveniently on blackboard. Also, i never had to go through excess information because the professor limits what he posts on blackboard which is more efficient for me when it comes to understanding the important topics and points for the class.	I really found none at all. Not only is the course materials more concise, but it is also cost-free, which is a very big help for many students.	Yes	It is cost-free, meaning that now students don't have to waste money on books that will become useless once the semester is up. Rather, students will have extra money to spend on other important items and necessities to live a better and richer life.
