Create stunning multi-touch textbooks


Available free on the Mac App Store, iBooks Author - https://www.apple.com/uk/ibooks-author/ - is an amazing app that allows both educators and learners to create beautiful multi-touch textbooks 

— and just about any other kind of book — for...

  • iPad,
  • iPhone and
  • Mac. 

With...

  • galleries,
  • video,
  • interactive diagrams,
  • 3D objects,
  • mathematical expressions

...and more, these books bring content to life in ways the printed page never could.

iBook Author provides users with a set of pre-defined templates to help them design the background of their textbook. 

They can choose from a wide variety of styles, like...

  1. classic textbook, or
  2. photo book 

...in both landscape and portrait orientations. 

Users can also choose from a variety of page layouts in each template, or even create one of their own.

For educators interested in using iBooks Author with learners to create multi-touch books, the iBooks Author Starter Kit - https://itunes.apple.com/us/book/ibooks-author-starter-kit/id987003719 - is definitely a must have. 

This free eBook is available for download with iBooks on your Mac or iPad, and with iTunes on your computer.
