How to use iBooks in the classroom

Challenge base  by Apple

Choose animal, how are they helping?

Research

Need Lion, not Snow leopard

Write in word, then go to ibook author

Why write a paper when you can write a book for everyone to see
To share with others, just share

do not put on iTunes

Only
View on iPad

Apple takes i/3 if you sell your book

Once changes are made to thenew book, must update. Notes stay the same!  Get the book right the first time!

Create hotspots, three D images


Cteduonline

Bookry make the videos smaller, use youtube widget

Check out infographics, scroller sidebar

To keep file size down, use just shapes ctedu.online
Easier to duplicate, not add

Shut down portrait mode.  Make small boxes, watch how this shifts between portrait and landscape

Get paid account, not free account

Google docs is a bit tricky, use Pages best, Word ok, google doc is tricky, must go back and forth????   Check this out




Ibook author

Lock the story in place

Have inspector offnto the side as you are creating

Widgets make it interactive

Tumbnails do not ordinarily show up, go to widget in inspector

Inspector is the key to using this

Scrolling sidebar, really neat

Fantastic idea, use this with gifted
