PreK-12 School Instructional Materials Market to Grow Modestly at 2.2% in 2010, New Simba Report Finds
Increasing student enrollment, an improved textbook adoption calendar and high demand for technology are expected to drive growth in instructional materials for the school market up a modest 2.2% to an estimated $8.3 billion in 2010, according to “Publishing for the PreK-12 Market, 2010-2011,” the newest strategic market report from media forecast and analysis firm Simba Information.
“The recession and a pro-tech administration in Washington have created a receptive climate for growth in technology use in schools, and to the degree that schools are spending again on instructional materials, they are investing in technology,” said Kathy Mickey, senior analyst/managing editor of Simba’s Education Group. “Technology is becoming strategic for educators who are adapting curriculums to new Common Core State Standards, measuring student progress on an ongoing basis or turning around the worst-performing schools.”
