To finish off our first week of remote learning, pupils wrote books using @BookCreatorApp online to summarise their weekโs learning in Maths. Using @MicrosoftTeams feedback could be given throughout the lesson on the quality of what the pupils where producing #remotelearning pic.twitter.com/NwtRzbnVna

Our @wylieelem students have created over 300 eBooks this week using @BookCreatorApp!

Get started
If youโre using Book Creator for the first time, you will need to set up your admin dashboard and you may want to connect Book Creator to your LMS.
Teachers and students can use their Google, Office 365 or Clever ID to sign in and create an account with ease. Teachers can also use their email address. We also have ways to allow students to sign in even without an email address.


Training
Help your teachers understand how to set up their libraries and invite students, and then inspire them with great ideas for remote learning! Weโre here to help with this.
Get in touch if youโd like to discuss bespoke training for your school or district.
We offer regular webinars on home learning and getting started with Book Creator. See our full calendar here.
Communication
Let parents know that youโre using Book Creator for remote learning. Youโll want to share our remote learning guidance for families, and then once the creativity is unleashed why not send out regular updates?
Teachers can publish student books online, so make sure you let parents know that their kids are becoming published authors! This will really help motivate kids to create fantastic books.

BONUS! Real-time collaboration
During the coronavirus pandemic, weโre offering every teacher free use of a premium feature - real-time collaboration, for 90 days.

Kids can make books together, at the same time, from their own homes!
