TeachBooks

Teachers’ Educational Assistance for interaCtive Hands-on Browser-based Online Open Knowledge for Students

Hi there 👋

This organizations contains repositories to support and deploy various online interactive books for educational purposes!

Starting from the need to share educational materials in various forms with students, we have started a platform for teachers and students assistants to collaborate and share interactive textbooks.

Our philosophy is to make it possible, practical and fun for all teaching teams, regardless of experience. Because while TeachBooks can be made by individuals, we've seen that a team of teachers and student assistants can make a TeachBook that's more accessible, attractive, and more interactive than any one person could make alone. Such a team can work together on both content as innovative features, collaboratively creating a deep learning experience.

We'd like to share our experiences and platforms with anyone, and to learn and promote your content and TeachBook features as well! So whether your teaching team is unfamiliar and lost in the nerdy world of interactive books, or whether you're an expert having created your own library of TeachBooks with custom features: share and collaborate with the biggest and most effective teaching team you were ever part of!

We're still learning how to organise this, so feel free to help us! Contact the TeachBooks Development Team (Tom van Woudenberg, Robert Lanzafame, Dennis van den Ouden-van der Horst, Freek Pols) via [email protected] for additional information.

Do you want to contribute?!

Do you have skills on any of: python, git, github actions, shell commands, HTML, CSS, JavaScript latex, markdown, MyST, webservers, Wordpress?

Awesome! To kickstart our collaboration, we've created an overview of the stuff we have:

Depending on the project you'll be working on, you'll get rights to the full organization or to specific repositories. Or fork a repo to start immediately!

More information on how to contribute can be found in our contribution guidelines

First steps

If you've no idea where to start, but would like to contribute, we'd advise going through the 'Getting start' part our manual: https://teachbooks.io/manual!

If you've some ideas to work on yourself, go ahead, fork a repo or reach out to use at [email protected]. If you've no idea where to start, reach out to us as well ([email protected]) and we'll find you a nice project which fits your skills.
