Today we have 🎉Read Aloud! 🎉 Choose sections of text, or the whole book, to have Bookshelf read it back to you! Super useful if you have any reading impairments, or learn best by listening. You can even pause, rewind, change the voiceover accent and playback speed. Fabulous! 💯

And on the 8th day of Bookshelf... 🎉Flashcards! 🎉 Stay on top of courses by creating flashcards in #Bookshelf! Create a deck, add #flashcards by copying content from the #book (or even write your own!) then review your deck when you’re ready for a #study session! Simple 💡

Day 9 is dedicated to another feature from our Labs tab on #Bookshelf online 🎉Night Display!🎉 Make #studying at night easier with a sepia-tone filter on your #book. Avoid eye strain, even if you are a night owl! Genius 🔥

Next up behind the Bookshelf advent window is 🎉Figures! 🎉 Easily sift through all of the figures in your chosen #book on #Bookshelf online without having to hunt for them within the text. Ideal for visual #learners! Smashing 👊🏼

Day 11 is 🎉Citation! 🎉 Want to #reference the text in an essay you’re #writing? Easily create a #citation in MLA, APA or Harvard format, and copy it into your work! Beautiful 💌

The final day of the 12 days of #Bookshelf! 🎉Content Controls! 🎉 4 different text sizes, various fonts (including OpenDyslexic), 3 different margin sizes and 3 line height along with changing the screen colour, for the most enjoyable reading experience possible. Excellent 💫

You don't have to sacrifice quality to transition to digital on a tight timeframe

Whilst I'm not in epicentre of all the changes currently occurring in #HigherEducation, I still found this piece a very interesting read. Some great advice on how to adapt, and support your own #resilience.

Impressive! Saskia Watts manages to capture all the juicy bits from the session, including links, images etc. Thanks. I think it made more sense when I read your summary than when I delivered it :-) #accessibility

This week's Perspectives blog focuses on how universities can communicate and support their digital learning strategy to ensure it appeals to the majority of students #HigherEducation #CrossingTheChasm #EarlyAdopters #AdoptionCurve #GeoffreyMoore #DigitalDevotees #DigitalLearning
