Topic: Book Creator is an easy way students can create and publish their own book. It is usually used within the K – 12 classroom, but there are so many easy ways to use it effectively within the university space as well (and as a teaching tool!). Manifold is an open CUNY publishing platform that can be used to create OER textbooks and enriched editions, and publish student work. Let’s explore the different things that can be done with Book Creator and Manifold.

Note: During the Fall 2020 semester, ACERT’s Lunchtime Seminars will still be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but sessions will only last from 12-1pm. Tech Tuesdays will introduce one or two tech tools during a short 15-20 minute presentation followed by Q&A and discussion. Thoughtful Thursdays will provide space for instructors to reflect on a range of topics related to distance learning and our experiences teaching during the COVID pandemic. The opening presentations during Tech Tuesdays and some Thoughtful Thursdays will be recorded and posted on ACERT’s webpage. No part of the Q&A or discussion will be recorded.
