Scholastic Book Wizard Mobile at Mac App Store analyse

Learn how to build, maintain and manage an effective classroom library and get quick, easy access to over 50,000 Scholastic Children’s books with the new and improved Scholastic Book Wizard Mobile app! Teachers have been using Book Wizard and Book Wizard Mobile for years to get information on books and share book lists with their peers. We’ve now made it a more powerful tool, providing them with the capacity to analyze, manage and track the books on their classroom shelves. Scholastic Book Wizard comes with an easy-to-use barcode scanner that lets them scan, create and save book lists, or an entire classroom library to their existing Scholastic.com account. Teachers can also modify existing book lists and share book lists with their peers through email, Facebook, Twitter and Pinterest. Looking for something specific? Book Wizard will also allow them to search for books by title, author or keyword and instantly provide them with information including: • Cover Image • Title • Author • Interest Level • Reading Level by: o Grade Level Equivalent o Lexile Measure o Guided Reading Level But Scholastic Book Wizard is so much more than just a scanner and book finder. The app serves as a unique reporting tool available to all teachers, empowering them with the data they need to create an effective classroom library. To get started, users must have a Scholastic.com account, or register within the app. Then, download the app, and start scanning! Once they’ve completed scanning their classroom library (at their own pace – we know teachers are busy people!), they are then ready to “Get Recommendations” to receive their classroom library analysis! They can find out where they have exemplary areas of performance, where they need to improve and how their classroom library measures against the 8 key benchmarks: • Books per student • Genres • Authors • Diversity • Series • Number of fiction/nonfiction • Guided Reading levels • Lexile bands The analysis also includes a list of book recommendations to help them build and maintain an effective classroom library, all year round! If they love some (or all!) of the recommendations, they can add the titles to their cart directly from their app and purchase them off the Scholastic Teacher Store when they are ready! But wait, there’s more: one of the newest features of the Scholastic Book Wizard app is the new “Borrow” feature. Now students can borrow books from their classroom library to continue independent reading at home! Teachers simply hit the “Borrow” button, check out the book to the student, and then check it back in when the student has returned the book! No more missing books!
