Canva + Book Creator = Engaging e-texts
Tuesday July 15, 2025 8:30am - 9:30am EDT
Imagine being able to give students a textbook that has exactly the right content that they need in order to be successful. Sure, some disciplines have online textbooks, but rarely are they designed to meet all your curriculum needs because every teacher and every classroom situation is different. Whether you are a core content teacher looking for ways to condense information into more palatable chunks for your students or you are a related arts teacher with no textbook, this is for you! In this session, you will learn how to harness the powers of Bookcreator and Canva to build an interactive e-textbook for your classroom that you can customize to your exact needs!
