iBooks 2 Tutorials

I uploaded a couple of new tutorials to my YouTube channel but forgot to post them here. The first one is an update of an earlier tutorial I had done for iBooks when it only supported ePub and PDF. This new tutorial focuses on the iBooks textbook format introduced with iBooks 2 and shows how to highlight, underline, bookmark and take notes while reading the new interactive textbooks. I also show the new Study Cards feature which provides a handy study aid for students.

The second tutorial focuses on ePub support in iBooks 2, which continues to support many text display options that were introduced in iBooks 1.5 (text size, font, themes for different backgrounds, and full screen mode on the iPad). The ability to adjust the display is an important component of UDL (Checkpoint 1.1: Offer ways of customizing the display of information.)
