Book Creator: Bringing Creativity to Your Classroom
Book Creator is an app that enables users to create eBooks and is a tool that provides accessibility for all learners. This tool can be used independently as well as collaboratively to create a variety of texts to support the learning needs of students ranging from primary to secondary school. This resource enables alternate access for students with diverse learning needs, through features such as alternative text, speech to text, text to speech (read to me), audio transcripts, and tools such as a pen to enable writing and drawing. For example, this tool can be utilized with students in the primary grades to create ebooks with simple words and pictures (drawing).
