Bridgepoint Education provides postsecondary education services. Yesterday they announced the launch of Constellation, "an innovative suite of interactive educational materials that will increase both the educational quality and affordability of an education for online students at its Ashford University." 

Constellation provides course materials in the form of both text and multimedia. Students will be able to download course materials into any electronic device including smart phones (BlackBerry, iPhone, etc), and readers such as Kindle and iPad. Whereas textbooks cost about an average of $150 or more per book, Constellation's price would be approximately $75 per material. Once purchased, students will be able to share it with others, download it on various devices, and even print the materials without any restriction.
