As a part of the research—which was conducted using a mixed technique—a literature review was carried out to source points to consider in the designing of digital textbooks and experts’opinions were obtained. Based on the results, an 88-question survey was then developed to elicit the preferences of secondary school students with regard to design features for digital textbooks. Also, in this study, three digital textbooks with different design features—but with the same content—were developed to be used by the students . The students were then informed about digital textbook technology by researchers and the digital textbooks were made available to them . Finally, the survey was administered in four separate sessions, and the results were revealed by analysis of the data collected. The findings showed that students would rather see digital books with a front page, back page and bookplate . They also pointed out that elements for switching between pages are necessary along with the table of contents, index, glossary and search tools. Lastly, they expressed a desire for images in digital textbooks, especially three-dimensional lifelike drawings, videos and animations .  \nKeywords  \nDigital textbook; E-textbook; Multimedia; Design principles; Secondary school  \nS.

Introduction  \nFollowing the advent of digital book technology, which began to spread in the 1990s, various definitions of the technology were provided by the relevant literature . Some stated that a digital book is the electronic content which could be displayed on computer or dedicated hardware (Chen, 2003; Cox & Muhammed, 2001; Hillesund, 2001; McKnight & Dearnley, 2003 ; Wilson & Landoni, 2001) . According to Morgan (1999), the concept of digital book means a combination of hardware and software . Likewise, in definitions formulated by Tennant (2000) and Armstrong, Edwards, & Lonsdale (2002) ; hardware and software were considered essential components of the concept of a digital book. In a definition by Connaway (2003), a digital book was considered a structure consisting of three components as software, hardware and content. The component of content refers to conversion of the information in digital books into executable files . Hardware includes devices such as desktops, notebooks and tablets, mobile devices such as iPhones, and e-readers that can be used to store and read digital books . Lastly, software refers to the programs that make the content useable on the selected hardware . Hence, it is possible to define digital books as “anew generation of books, which have digitized contents supported by multi-dimensional items,  \npossess qualities that evoke conventional books, and require a reader hardware and software for”  \naccess .  \nAs a common element of various definitions, it is stated that the content of printed books has been transferred to an electronic medium in the case of digital books . However, today's digital books provide high-level interaction which goes beyond mere ‘transfer’. Digital books not only include linked texts . They have now become systems into which many contemporary technologies can be integrated such as augmented reality and artifici","cbCaiczOCP10Tuy4","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiczOCP10Tuy4","pdf",1407685,21,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## Digital book definitions and components\n## Advantages and educational value\n## Digital textbooks and learning styles","[{\"question\":\"What was the purpose of the study about digital textbooks?\",\"answer\":\"The study determined secondary school students’ preferences for design features used in digital textbooks.\"},{\"question\":\"How did the researchers prepare the digital textbook materials and survey?\",\"answer\":\"They reviewed literature, collected experts’ opinions, developed an 88-question survey, and created three digital textbooks with different design features but the same content.\"},{\"question\":\"What design features did students prefer most?\",\"answer\":\"Students preferred digital books with a front page, back page, and bookplate, and they indicated that page-switching elements plus table of contents, index, glossary, and search tools are necessary.\"}]","Determination of Secondary Students’Preferences Regarding Design Features Used in Digital Textbooks | PDF",1792091465,53]
