Yet again Apple stopped us in our tracks. We awaited each word with bated breath during last Thursday’s unveiling of iBooks2, iBooks Author, and iTunes U.
Now what? After a week of social media frenzy, water cooler chatter, thoughtful analysis, and technical digging, it’s time to reflect on what we’ve learned.
Join us for a live round table discussion with McGraw-Hill - one of Apple’s education partners; Digital Book World - the publishing industry’s premier digital publishing forum; and Aptara - trusted digital solutions partner to the world’s largest publishers, to assess the specifics and reveal likely impacts of Apple’s enhanced eBook ecosystem.
The round table discussion, including audience Q&A, will address:
• Apple’s iBooks Vision
– A true game-changer for Education, or just more Mac-centricity?
– Implications for students, teachers, schools, authors, and publishers
• Apple’s iBooks Author
– ‘One-click publishing’ for all?
– Under-the-hood specifics and first impressions
• Reinventing the Educational Publishing value-chain
– Where next for traditional Educational publishers?
– Opportunities and challenges, winners and losers
Participants:
Bruce Marcus - Chief Digital & Information Officer, McGraw-Hill
Matt Mullin - Programming Director, Digital Book World
Samir Kakar - Chief Technology Officer, Aptara
John Egan - Moderator, Executive Vice President, Education & Learning, Aptara
