X-Book for The Everyday Writer

The x-Book Experience

The x-Book for The Everyday Writer goes beyond the printed page, including multimedia content that students can engage with and easy ways to make your book work for your course.

Your home page—your course links.

Handy course links let you upload documents like your syllabus, or link to other important course and campus resources online—right from the first page students see when they log in.

Easily assign pages.

One click, right from the table of contents, lets you easily assign pages, quizzes, activities, or chapters. Just choose a due date, and you’re done.

Keep students focused.

Assignments are organized into a clear road map so that students can focus on what they need to do for class without missing a due date.

Keep focused on your students.

Detailed reports give you insight into which pages your students have read and how they've performed on assigned activities. See what's been started,completed,and what you need to grade, so everyone stays on the same page.

Include videos.

The x-Book for the Everyday Writer includes 25 short videos of real student writers that you can use to start class discussions or prompt written reflection.

Add what you want.

You can easily add and organize your own pages, changing the table of contents on the fly. Embed your own links, images, or videos into the pages. Create folders to organize everything according to the way you teach. Upload documents so students can access everything in one place.

Get more than an e-book.

Our editors’ picks of related content make it simple for you and your students to view additional resources that are relevant to the page you’re reading: videos, flashcards, quizzes, and more!

The x-Book is a social space. Even the shyest student can raise a virtual hand by adding a note and starting a discussion right on the page of the book.

Get ahead of the curve.

And many x-books come with LearningCurve, game-like adaptive quizzing that lets students see what they know and focus on the topics they need help with the most.
