The following examples of multimedia use in Pressbooks may be of interest:
- OER Activity Sourcebook: An Interactive Resource Guide | UW-Madison
- Humans R Social Media – with students’ first-person essays, audio clips, video clips, and graphics. They also have bios.
- Jacob Lawrence in Seattle – a series of essays mixed with the artist’s work and maps of his journey, photos, and more.
- 21st Century Queer Fashion Brands – an oral history project with business owners, including videos, photos, and transcripts of the related interviews. It’s a treat!
- Queer Fashion and Style: Stories from the Heartland – an exhibition catalogue “analysing the recent history of fashion through a queer lens by examining how queer identities are negotiated in everyday styles by women in the Midwest part of the United States from the late twentieth century to the present.” It includes a wide range of images and text, with a video tour of the exhibition gallery and links to scholarship and press for the exhibition at the end. It’s a great example of using Pressbooks to feature scholarship on a broader level.
- JUNXTS: Introductory Spanish – embeds many videos, slideshows, and playlists.
- Art History I – starts each chapter with learning objectives and “key questions to ask” and incorporates images (with attributions in the captions) and tables in the text.
- Opening Contemporary Art – uses many types of interactive content, such as image hotspots, interactive video, image juxtaposition, questions, flashcards, and more. (view more interactive content types here)
- A Long Goodbye: Ed and Mary’s Journey with Lewy Body Dementia – is primarily text-based and incorporates textboxes for “points to consider” and “suggested activities”.
