Abstract
The undergraduate faculty of a public nursing program redesigned their curriculum to a concept-based model and implemented electronic textbooks (e-books) for all students. Quantitative data from faculty and students reported more proficiency and satisfaction with e-books over time. Both groups expressed neutral feelings regarding e-books enhancing learning. Qualitative data revealed perceived benefits including searchability and portability of e-books; barriers included eye strain and time to master e-books use.
