Hi CCBC-NETers,
I'd like to announce for the first time on-line the availability of TeachingBooks.net -- a website I developed to use Internet technologies to connect educators to children's book authors and curricular materials.
From the convenience of your computer, you can now
? Watch movies of authors & illustrators in their studios
? Access discussion guides to more than 1,000 books
? Ask questions of your favorite authors
? Obtain comprehensive author study programs
? Link to thousands of children?s lit and educational sites
? Receive customized emails that instantly connect you to curricular resources relevant to your needs
Movies Enter the studios of nationally renowned children?s book authors and illustrators and see exclusive, high-quality movies that offer you glimpses into their lives and work.
Discussion Guides Easily find free, professional teaching guides for more than 1,000 children's books.
Author Study Programs Receive comprehensive author study programs that include movies, interviews, discussion guides, and links that stimulate creative teaching ideas.
Children?s Lit Hub Utilize our updated, reliable and comprehensive portal containing thousands of links, organized by author, title, subject and grade. Instantly access these links from TeachingBooks.net?s search engine and easy-to-navigate, sortable tables.
Eye-on-the-Web Save time with our customized emails that automatically identify and instantly connect you to teaching materials that match your needs. It?s your personalized eye-on-the-web!
Equal Access Our technology affords urban or rural educators and those with ample or too few resources, equal access to our virtual author programs and classroom materials. TeachingBooks.net is also designed to be ADA accessible.
There is no cost right now for this service -- so sign up for your free guest membership and start enjoying these new, insightful resources.
Because this is so new (and has taken me more than 18 months to build), and I very much value you're professional opinion, please let me know what you think.
I hope this note finds everyone safe and resurfacing ok.
Thanks for your interest in TeachingBooks.net.
Nick
