She said:<\/p>\n<p><blockquote  class=\"x-blockquote\" ><span>These are great additions for accessibility and inclusion. What is great is that everyone will benefit from it not just those with disabilities. Thank you for doing right by your consumers and by working so hard to make sure everyone is included. It matters. <\/blockquote><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Equality. Inclusion. Differentiation. These are important considerations as technology becomes more and more prevalent in education, and we want to remain right at the forefront of accessibility in education.<\/p>\n<p>The ability to offer differentiation for students is a key reason why Book Creator is so popular. Teachers have a toolset to create materials for students of all levels to interact with. Better yet, we're making these tools available to students of varying abilities and special needs, to create their own work and experience the accomplishment of becoming a published author. These accessibility updates bring Book Creator to more students, and make the tools even easier to use than they were before.<\/p>\n<p>Check out this book from Rosey McQuillan - created in Book Creator. You can see the audio and video captions in action in this book, plus numerous ideas for differentiating your lessons with Book Creator.<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"x-row e16171-e18 mch7-1 mch7-3 mch7-6\"><div class=\"x-row-inner\"><div class=\"x-col e16171-e19 mch7-7\"><div class=\"x-content-area e16171-e20 mch7-9 bookcreator\"><iframe src=\"https:\/\/read.bookcreator.com\/library\/-LCESe5qTaw-qLZCBqm3\/book\/7jnlSlWsTlapDqwtupRn5g?sidebyside=false\" height=600\"><\/iframe><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Auto generate captions for video and audio, dictate in 120 languages, navigate with your keyboard &#8211; and more!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":16176,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[249,9,16],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-16171","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-equity-inclusion","category-news","category-special-education"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v25.3 -
