By the end of this project, you will have created a digital library for students that will connect them to over 40,000 digital books while giving teachers the ability to assign books to students and view student progress. EPIC is an invaluable tool for the tech-connected classroom. Whether used in the classroom, for virtual learning, or at home, EPIC allows all children to have access to quality books, audiobooks, and videos to encourage their love of reading. If you are looking for ways to motivate young readers or ensure that access to books is never a problem for growing readers, join me as we learn how to use EPIC to help all students succeed.
