Up until now, eBooks have typically been limited to static text and images—but no longer! SoftChalk Cloud has redefined the eBook by making it possible for educators to create their own digital curriculum content that can be published as eBooks that are truly engaging, interactive learning experiences for students! The SoftChalk eReader allows students to access their interactive lessons online or offline using any device.

What is a SoftChalk eBook?
With SoftChalk Cloud, in addition to publishing fully HTML5 compliant digital curriculum content for viewing in browsers, educators can publish lessons as interactive, media rich, eBooks that can be viewed on any device using the SoftChalk eReader.

Top 5 Advantages of SoftChalk eBooks:

Interactivity – Not only can you create your own eBooks—you can make them interactive! You can include interactive activities, videos, audio and other features including quiz questions, which provide feedback for your students.

Multi-platform Authoring and Viewing – You can create your eBooks using both the Mac or PC platforms AND your students can view your eBooks using the SoftChalk eReader App across any device.

Offline Lesson Access – Your students can download your eBook lessons to devices. Then, if theyre studying from home… or anywhere and do not have an Internet connection, they can still access the content.

Distribute Anywhere – How great is that! In comparison, if you create an iBook with iBook Author on a Mac, then you have to distribute it through iTunes University. This can be a cumbersome process and, if accepted, your iBook is only viewable on a Mac. So you’re more restricted in how you can make your iBook available to your students. With SoftChalk, once you create a lesson and publish your SoftChalk eBook, you can put your eBook anywhere—on your school’s file server or web server, in your learning management system, or you can distribute it right from SoftChalk Cloud. You’re not limited in how you can distribute your eBooks to students. So students can essentially access them from anywhere!

eReader Feature Support – Depending on the device used by your students, standard features available with your SoftChalk eBooks may include copying, pasting and highlighting text, defining terms, taking notes, searching text, and sharing selected content by text messaging, email, twitter or Facebook.
