Most Helpful Reviews

Powtoon

Jed, Vice Principal: I wanted to give you a 10 but subscription is costly especially for Catholic private school teachers.
Pam, Unemployed: My daughter used this platform and I just dealt with the customer service which was excellent. I don’t have a screenshot but here’s my dog.
Joey Alaimo, Director: I just started using Powtoon and find it a useful tool. I'm still getting familiar with it, but I like what I've been able to produce so far. But there is a lot I still need to learn about using Powtoon. I am using this tool as a Business, not a school, so I responded "Neutral" to most of the questions in the survey.

If you don't need any audio or video to be played in the book, or any embedded content - that's to say - if your book just contains text and images, you could export the book as a PDF, which can be read universally on almost any device.

 
Training

Powtoon

We have online tutorials and webinars. Most users just start using Powtoon. The interface is very similar to google slides / Powerpoint so easy to get started. We can also support schoolwide webinars on demand, if needed.

A bespoke teacher training programme will be created based on your size and needs:

- Teacher accreditation and online course
- Registration system and tracking
- Dedicated account management
- Training pack and materials
- Onboarding and implementation
- Link to a huge network of teachers and learning technologists

Book Creator has a training program built into the app called Book Creator Certified Authors. This accreditation program is self-paced and is a great way for districts to assign PD and deliver renewal credits to staff.
