Community reviews for Book Creator

i love this website but i wish they could make everything free so we do not pay it could make them popluar

I like the way that this tool is set up for the classroom. By allowing for students to create work and allow for teacher and peer access, it makes collaboration easy and fun. Once work is completed, students can share it with family, friends, and virtually anyone who they would like to see their work.

I think Book Creator is an amazing resource. I think it brings engagement and is an incredible platform that can be used for all ages and subjects.

I like when a lot is going on in my class, my students are active and show me what they have learned in their own way. Thanks to Book Creator, I can develop my students' creativity, give them choices and make sense of what we do in out classroom. Book creator is a tool that allows me to increase my students' engagement without me spending tons of hours on designing a lesson. They just create, enjoy the process and learn from each other so much!

I explained before but I discovered it because we had a project to with European Week in class and my students prepared different books about all countries in Europe. Some of them wanted to do more of one because they felt so motivating using this tool. Amazing. Highly recommended.

I love Bookcreator and my overall opinion of Bookcreator tool is very high with mainly pros. I like that you can add any content to a book, including text, video , audio, images, stickers not only from inside Bookcreator but also embeds from external apps such as Flip, Adobe Creative Cloud Express, Nearpod and Soundtrap amongst many more. This makes the perfect digital portfolio to look amazing. One slightly small con is that you can not copy and paste an image from outside Bookcreator straight into a page, it needs to be downloaded into the device and then uploaded to the page which doe not save time. It would also be amazing to have a feature to lock teacher's comments or content to avoid students deleting feedback or important information.

The impact on teaching and learning is where teaching was a lot easy. It showcased creativity of students and present their work in a very fantastic way. Also, while observing my students, it became apparent to me that to increase effectiveness of my lessons, I had to focus with the way the task is given into practice. My students were included and engaged in the task, they used their prior knowledge and complete the activity successfully. I managed to even ask them few questions with regards of the experience using the tool. Moving forward, I would definitely use this activity to be adapted into different types of learning a text and making my students to reflect their learning. Their learning was evident when all of them were able to demonstrate working in the evaluation level of Bloom's Taxonomy level during the task. They communicated well and collaborated throughout the task i.e they suggested to their friends in what kind of pictures, texts that they could use in making their poster to look amazing. They were excited in using Book Creator as they managed to be an independent explorer who is responsible for their own learning.

I have known Book Creator since 2015 and I have noticed that over time this tool has improved a lot both in terms of resources it offers (constantly growing) and in terms of accessibility. In fact, it is not necessary to waste a lot of time searching for images or emoticons, because everything is within reach. I would also like to underline the great attention that has been reserved to pupils with special educational needs, in fact it's possible not only to listen to the texts written automatically, but also to have an alternative text and audio for each image to help the blind.

The first time I used Book Creator with the students, it took me a few minutes to explain all the features and what each button is for, but this year I recorded a video, so I think it will be easier for the new generation to get to know Book Creator. Perhaps such features could be set in advance for the buttons so that the students could study them independently on their own initiative.

Book Creator is suitable for any subject or school level, from primary to upper secondary school, flexible and adaptable to different contexts and situations.
