Reading Paths for Teachers

Destiny Discover > Home

You can guide your students’ reading experience by assigning a specific group of eBooks to them. Create a fixed Reading Path to require students to read all eBooks in an assigned order. Or, create a flexible Reading Path to choose a group of eBooks that can be read in any order. Then, assign students to read a specific number of eBooks from that path.
