Academic Innovation Conference 2026

What if student work didn’t just get graded, but published?
In this session, educators will learn a simple, approachable process for turning student writing and artwork into professionally printed books. Drawing from real-world experience publishing a community collection, this session breaks down each step: from collecting submissions to formatting, design, and print.
Participants will explore practical classroom applications, including whole-class books, student anthologies, and end-of-year projects, as well as ways to create custom instructional materials such as workbooks and journals.
Whether starting small or thinking big, educators will leave with a clear framework, ready-to-use resources, and the confidence to bring student work to life in a meaningful, lasting way.
