About FamiylBookform

The evolution of writing & communication. Instead of a blank page, our dashboard scaffolds students' inquiry learning, where they interview others and all content is automatically formatted into published books, funded by communities. 

Adhering to Universal design Learning frameworks for the 'Why, What, How' of student learning. Students have agency to personalize & differentiate their work and are proud to present their books of value to authentic audiences, who buy the books.

Students follow templates & question prompts to speak into the page & interview others, using speech-to-text (any language) & collaboration, & all content is automatically formatted into a polished format. The 'Communication for Connection' activities generate oxytocin & an interest in learning. Students' digital content enriches lessons and books can be graded, included in portfolios, gifted & sold for fundraising.
