EdTech Books
Description
EdTech Books is an open access digital publishing platform used for creating, hosting, and distributing free textbooks and learning materials in the fields of educational technology, instructional design, and teacher education.
The platform hosts a collection of openly licensed textbooks, edited volumes, and instructional resources that can be read online, downloaded, or printed without charge. Content is organised into chapters with built-in navigation, search functionality, and accessibility features such as skip links, dark mode, and screen reader support.
Books on the platform cover topics including learning theory, instructional design, educational research methods, K-12 teaching practice, and the use of digital tools in classrooms. EdTech Books supports authors and editors through tools for structuring multi-chapter publications, embedding multimedia, and issuing digital badges linked to reader achievements.
Readers can access supplementary features such as integrated mathematical notation rendering via MathJax, a built-in AI assistant for content questions, and user accounts that track reading progress across publications. The service is typically used by university faculty, graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in educational technology programmes, as well as by teacher educators seeking openly licensed materials for course adoption.
