Eman stated that, \u201creading from textbooks can increase your reading level\u201d.<\/p>\nA lot of people believe that the more you read the more you comprehend and remember things more. \u201cSometimes the internet can give you wrong information\u201d, says Eman.

Dena also stated that, \u201cTablets are fun and easy to use unlike textbooks.\u201d<\/p>\n
