Some ways I would use the eBookboxes.

• Student group rotations• Individual teacher student conference session as consolidation
or assessment• At home homework tasks that can be completed independently,
with a parent or carer• Link the eBookbox tasks to a class Collaborative spaces built
around a theme , topic of study or class purpose. The Collaborative environment is an ideal place for students to showcase their understanding of concepts covered through an eBookbox.
• Link the eBookbox to Student Learning Portfolios or Learning Goals as a feedback and reflective place
