Abstract(s)
The potential of electronic books (ebooks) has been discussed widely, due mainly to
their role in helping the user transform passive reading into interactive and dynamic
learning, while promoting better retention and appropriation of materials. Taking this
premise, the present study follows an exploratory and qualitative approach, discussing
how the use of ebooks can improve learning, motivation, dynamism and interactivity
in Distance Education. This study was supported by a bibliographic review and a survey
method through an online questionnaire used as data collection instruments. The
sample consisted of students who attended distance courses taught by the Open
University ISCED – UnISCED in Mozambique. The scientific literature studied, and the
results from the field research, show the practicality of using ebook as a learning
resource and they facility the interactivity.
