Generation of teaching material through interactive electronic formats using iBook author
Pages 19 - 26
Abstract
We present an example of an interactive electronic book developed using the iBook Author tool, designed by Apple for Mac OS. It is an easy system for the design of complementary teaching material in our university education systems, given its different presentation and development options. It features an interactive atlas for the study of the nervous system, through different neuroimaging techniques. The iBook format also allows the incorporation of dynamic animations that enable the understanding of an anatomical structure.
