Abstract: In recent years the numbers of colleges and universities undertaking mobile learning initiatives with regards to e-textbooks have increased. Although, the use of e-textbooks has great potentials for learning, students (and instructors) still face a number of challenges with e-textbooks. Our study examined chemistry students’ intrinsic perceptions about this new learning experience. This round table discussion will focus on the results from our study and suggestions on how to manage these challenges.
