Creating eBooks

• Book Creator - https://bookcreator.com/ - is a tool, that's worth a closer look, for making ebooks. 
  

NOTE: Currently there are two options... 

1. the iPad app - https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/book-creator-for-ipad/id442378070?mt=8 (currently for £4.99) or 
2. Using the Chrome Browser - https://app.bookcreator.com/books

With Book Creator education practitioners, and/or their learners, can make ebooks that include...

• text, 
• images, 
• audio recordings, 
• videos, and even 
• maps.

Learners can insert media that they've created or embed content from sites like YouTube and Vimeo into the pages of their ebooks.

Richard Byrne's video - https://www.youtube.com/embed/A0bWoYdjEfQ - provides a complete overview of how to create an ebook on Book Creator. In his video you will see how to...

• select a page size, 
• customise the page colour, and how to 
• alter the text layout.

He also covers...

• embedding content from third-party sites, 
• adding maps to pages, 
• uploading pictures, and 
• recording audio and video directly into Book Creator pages.

NOTE: Book Creator can be used for free but with the limitation of 40 books per account. There is also an upgraded, school-wide version that offers...

• real-time collaboration,
• LMS integration, and
• an admin dashboard...

Richard Byrne's post, "Ideas for Making Multimedia eBooks With Students" - https://www.freetech4teachers.com/2018/08/5-ideas-for-making-multimedia-ebooks.html - is also worth a closer look.
