Chapter 6: Working with Images and Multimedia in eBooks by Pariah Burke Pdf

Although the majority of ebooks are text-only novels and short stories, a large minority of ebooks—across all genres—include photographs, illustrations, charts, graphs, maps, other imagery, and even audio and video.

Whether your publication merely needs a cover or requires lots of figures, the process of creating and using graphics and multimedia in ebooks differs in several distinct ways from creating and using them in print or in other digital formats. In this chapter, you will learn about the following: Exporting Images to eBooks Preparing Images for eBooks Adding Audio and Video to eBooks Adding Vector Graphics to eBooks

Chapter 1: eReading Devices and Their Capabilities by Pariah S. Burke Pdf

The first thing to under­stand about dig­i­tal pub­lish­ing is what devices peo­ple use to con­sume dig­i­tal con­tent, includ­ing what types of pub­li­ca­tions each device class can sup­port, how peo­ple use the devices, and where eread­ing hard­ware is headed. You will find a star­tling array of devices on the mar­ket, but ulti­mately there are only four classes of devices on which dig­i­tal pub­li­ca­tions are consumed.

Chapter 3: Digital Publication Types and Their Markets by Pariah S. Burke Pdf

Now that we’ve exam­ined the char­ac­ter­is­tics and capa­bil­i­ties of the avail­able dig­i­tal pub­li­ca­tion for­mats, it’s time to think about the kind of con­tent you want to dis­sem­i­nate dig­i­tally. It’s all rather sub­jec­tive, but I’ll iden­tify the pur­pose, char­ac­ter and use of dif­fer­ent pub­li­ca­tion types as well as explain which for­mat classes are best suited to each type.

Chapter 2: Digital Publishing Formats and Their Capabilities by Pariah S. Burke Pdf

Like devices, epub­li­ca­tion for­mats are numer­ous and var­ied, with dif­fer­ences, some­times sub­tle, between them, but large diver­gences in pur­pose, capa­bil­ity and device sup­port. Consequently, it’s most log­i­cal and pro­duc­tive to think of epub­li­ca­tions in terms of for­mat classes, with each class offer­ing a par­tic­u­lar com­bi­na­tion of pur­pose, capa­bil­ity, and device support.

Multimedia Learning Stations by Jen Spisak Pdf

Learn how to use rotating multimedia learning stations, employing databases, websites, education apps, videos, audio podcasts, online games, books, and more to build a strong, collaborative library program that helps you strengthen student understanding of the research process. Libraries across America are losing funding and suffering from cuts in positions and programs. The process presented here will help you increase library use and prove that school libraries—and librarians—are a necessity. Written for middle and secondary school librarians, the book provides a guide to using standards-based and content-focused learning stations in the library to facilitate instruction and strengthen students' research skills. You'll learn what multimedia stations are, why they should be used, and how to use them to enhance and extend direct instruction. Plus, the book breaks down the steps for building sets of stations and shows you how to organize and implement them for maximum impact. In addition to describing the "hows," the book provides sound arguments for why multimedia learning stations work. The method ensures that students gain continued practice with resources and build the skills and dispositions you want them to have. It also increases the amount of collaboration you'll have with teachers and enhances your interactions with and influence on your students. Teacher and student testimonials are interspersed throughout the book, and appendices offer you specific examples from which to draw.
