Lightbox...An Interactive Reading and Learning Experience For Your Students

As librarians and educators we want to put the very best and most engaging resources into the hands of our students.  We want to find those resources that make learning exciting and content come to life through the pages of the books they read.  And we want to choose resources that inspire all of our readers in a variety of ways.  

With Lightbox from Follett, we can offer the unique student-centered learning experience we are looking for!  

As the Lightbox page states, 

Lightbox™ is a PreK-12 multimedia educational space that encourages students to see learning in a whole new light. With Lightbox, students receive a true multimedia learning experience that incorporates audio, video, interactive activities, and much more across a variety of professionally developed curriculum.
Designed to inspire contemporary students, Lightbox incorporates videos, Google Maps, worksheets, audio, quizzes, and other exciting interactive features. Lightbox also integrates access to your eBook collections, Destiny® Library Manager™, Vocabulary.com, and other key sites.
Lightbox will bring students a reading and learning experience like never before with these interactive features. 
Although these features are what make Lightbox unique, take a look at the benefits from differentiated, comprehensive, connected and more.  

Oh...I almost forgot.  When you purchase a Lightbox title, this also includes a print copy of the book, along with the MARC record with perpetual multi-user access to the title.  

How cool is that?  
Now don't just take it from me.  I also want to share that Lightbox won Best of Show at ISTE 2016 from Tech & Learning, which is a huge accomplishment and honor. 

In fact, take a look at a few of the Lightbox titles and see for yourself why they will serve a special place with your students and teachers too.  
As I mentioned earlier, Lightbox is a PreK-12 platform which covers a large variety of topics including science, holidays,
...engineering, social studies,
...geography, 
...science,
countries,
history, literature studies and so much more.  
 
Follett has also introduced Lightbox in Spanish which includes several topics for PreK-12 too. 
I really love looking through all of the Lightbox titles that are available on Titlewave....especially the new 2018 Lightbox titles!  There are lots of great ones and more being added every year. 
You can look at Lightbox on Titlewave here too. 

I just know you will love what you find and your students will definitely love the reading and learning experience they will be part of with Lightbox too.
