How to Create your Own Book

If you have found more than a few useful resources here, 'CREATE A BOOK' allows you to collect, save and download them for keeps. Do you only need resources for primary science? Or just ideas for ICT in maths or English? Or examples of dialogic teaching? Whatever your particular need, here is what to do:

  1. Start making a book (http://orbit.educ.cam.ac.uk/wiki/Special:Book)
  2. Use the side menu and category links to find a resource you want to keep.
  3. Each page you visit has a link at the top to let you add the resource to your collection.

For a general idea, see this tutorial on how to create books in other wiki sites. It's only slightly different to start collecting a book of ORBIT resources - go to this page http://orbit.educ.cam.ac.uk/wiki/Special:Book And feel free to post your book of selected resources here to help the next person.
