iBooks Author
When you can't find exactly what you're looking for, the best thing to do is to make your own! Now, you can make an amazing iBook using iBook Author. This app is available through the Apple store and is basically a drag and drop application that allows you to add movies, links, photo galleries and more. I have used this program to make theme based text books for various subject areas.
The interactive capabilities of an iBook increases student engagement and allows teachers to make the content more interesting. Did you find a great movie clip on YouTube? Add it right to the book! Do you have a great link for an extension of the content? Add it to the book! There are so many wonderful ways teachers can integrate technology with their content areas and iBooks pave the way for the blending of creativity and content.
