BAU

Teacher. Postgraduate Diploma Course in Digital Books

I'm teacher at The Postgraduate Diploma Course in Digital Books.
The Postgraduate Diploma Course in Digital Books is the result of a strong awareness of the demand in the digital publishing market for new types of e-book: narrative format, illustrated novel, artistic book, books with content for teaching purposes, illustrated tales, books for the scholastic market, and tales with more interaction for children, so the course admits specialization in e-book/e-Pub production and publishing. It offers a new concept in design and in reading, taking advantage of devices such as Kindle, e-Readers, ‘smartphones’ and ‘tablets’.
