So when the folks at Book Creator launched an online version to use Google Chrome I quickly added it to my list of recommended web tools too. Book Creator can be used by students to create multimedia ebooks that include video, images, audio, text, and free-hand drawings. You can watch an overview of Book Creator here. After getting familiar with Book Creator consider having your students make one of the following types of ebooks. 1. Multimedia Comic Books Book Creator offers a half-dozen page layout templates including three specifically designed for students who want to make their own comic books. Within those comic templates students will find options for adding speech and thought bubbles, word art, comic stickers, and clip art to the pages of their comic books. They can also add utilize all of the other Book Creator tools like recording audio and inserting videos into the pages of their comic books. 2. Digital Portfolios Book Creator supports uploading many kinds of media and then adding that media to the pages of an ebook. This can be a great way to have students build digital portfolios of their best work. 3. How-to Guides Combining text, pictures, and video on the same page can be an excellent way to build a how-to guide for everything from conducting science experiments to tuning a lawn mower's engine. 4. Creative Writing Students can enhance their creative writing by adding sound effects, mood music, or spoken words to the pages of their Book Creator ebooks. Students can do this by selecting the option to import media into any page of their ebooks. 5. Multimedia Reports Watching videos and listening to podcasts is increasingly a part of the research that students do when beginning a research assignment. Rather than just writing summaries of the content of those videos or podcasts, students can embed them into the pages of their reports written in Book Creator. Book Creator is available for individual registration as well as school-wide registration. From now until the end of September Book Creator is offering a great discount on their school-wide package.    Disclosure: Book Creator is currently an advertiser on FreeTech4Teachers.com This post originally appeared on Free Technology for Teachersif you see it elsewhere, it has been used without permission.               Related Stories Emojis, Citations, and Tech Fails - The Week in Review G Suite and Chrome Accessibility Get Your Copy of the 2018-19 Practical Ed Tech Handbook   • Email to a friend • More Recent Articles G Suite and Chrome Accessibility ClassDojo Releases Three New Features for the New School Year Get Your Copy of the 2018-19 Practical Ed Tech Handbook Use This Chrome Setting to Save Your Laptop's Battery Tips on What to Include in Digital Portfolios
