PE7_CAST UDL Book Builder

The Book Builder is a tool that promotes creativity and can be used in all teaching subject areas and for different levels of learning. In addition to writing, editing and choosing pictures for the creation of your book, you can also add audio clips, glossary and more. Books can be created online, download it, print it, and even share them with others through the public library.  
The discovery of this tool has led me to expand my knowledge of how to offer students options to improve their learning skills in a more innovative and attractive ways. I consider it a great tool for Personalized Learning because I can create projects appropriate for the students needs and interest.
It's not that complicated to use, each facilitate the interest of educators to use. All you need to do is, select the type of book, grade level, audience, and subject area to be use. This help us as educator to focus in specific target areas need it for a group of students or individually.





Then, the action begin!  You star choosing the setting, characters, etc. for your story... you can even hear the voice of each character you choose, amazing!  Also, uploading your own pictures is possible. 


Now, time to create your text.  Pick your page layout for each page you will include on your book.  In which one, you can add illustrations, audio, text, etc.  Even a space for students response area.
