Hello Everyone,

You are receiving this email because you are either a key contact at your institution for BCcampus Open Education, a member of our Pressbooks Advisory committee, or a member of the BCOEL listserv.

Effective immediately, faculty and staff who use the BCcampus Pressbooks instance (pressbooks.bccampus.ca) now have the option of activating three plugins:
  1. H5P
  2. Hypothes.is
  3. Quick LaTeX
To learn more about these features, visit the Plugin Features section of the recently completed BCcampus OpenEd Pressbooks Guide. Note that only the Administrators of books can activate plugins. (See Provide Access to Others for details on permissions assigned to each user type in Pressbooks.)

Our team will more widely communicate the availability of these features in October at the same time that we announce the next Pressbooks upgrade. In the meantime, if you are an open education support contact for faculty and staff at your institution, we ask that you take time to read about and test these plugins if you are unfamiliar with them. 

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Regards,
Lauri

Lauri Aesoph, Manager, Open Education
