Google's gift for fall semester students

Google never fails to please students. This time again it has brought the fall semester students a new feature that can save them thousands of dollars which they spend on text books. How? By providing you the renting service. Yes, rent a book for your college from Google's higher education digital text books rack. You are also allowed to buy! When you're buying , some books might be expensive but you can save dollars by renting a book. It will be cheaper than buying hard copies. Also you are being offered a deal that if you rent for 6 months, you can directly download the book for a fair enough discount. In real world, it would be equivalent to buying a second hand book. That's Google Play Store, with a nice new announcement for students.

Students are now exchanging textbooks for iPads. Courses are being offered online for free through Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) projects, including the edX.

The ways education is done are undergoing a big change. Thanks to Google.
