Book Creator has been one of the most popular app for modern classroom teachers. It has been nominated among one of the top 16 best edtech tools available. In this post we will see how you can connect Book Creator App with Canva and use the designs made in Canva in your Book Creator App.
Book Creator App is a digital tool that enables students to create and read multimodal digital books. It is an ideal tool for enhancing student engagement through story creation and multimedia design. When creating their own books, students can either generate their own content (by typing, drawing, or uploading self-made videos, audio files, and images) or they can curate online multimedia resources from the Internet.
Book Creator can also be used in project-based learning activities because it allows real-time collaboration for multiple students to create one book. While students will get the most educational benefit out of designing their own books, they can also read multimodal books designed by others to enrich their knowledge.
