Day 9: Book Creator for the WIN!

After a full nights sleep, I am feeling very much less overwhelmed about all the new things we learned yesterday. I am very much appreciating the plethora of technology that it out there and that is so easy to use!

Today we started using Book Creator to present 20 ideas for our classroom. Book Creator is a great app that can definitely benefit many users and different learners. It is definitely a worthwhile way to including UDL into planning your courses.

When Barb was explaining the activity to us this morning I thought there is no way I can think of that many idea to do in book creator. But once I started thinking the ideas just kept coming! I found it rather easy after that first one to come up with ideas on how I could use Book Creator in my classroom. I feel that I know my curriculum well and it is an easy step to convert some of my class assessments or activities to incorporate Book Creator.

I was quite stressed out after Terry and I spent 2 hours working with the app and had only gotten 6 ideas completed, but talking with Barb at the end of class really helped us understand that we were on the right track and that we understood exactly what we were supposed to do. I must like to feel stressed because I do it quite often :P.

I am sure Monday's class will go much more smoothly and we will be able to complete well within the time limit :)
