A trip to the heart of the editorial production of textbooks with Santillana

The work of doing textbooks every year for all schoolchildren in Spain is what can be seen below in the video made by Santillana. And is that with the return to school students return to class to start a new school year, marked in 2014 by the entry into force of the LOMCE, which opens in 1st, 3rd and 5th grade of Primary and in 1st of Basic FP. Backpacks and purses are already loaded every day with school supplies and also with textbooks. And it is books that have to adapt quickly and accurately to new times, to curricular changes and also to new technologies. Because children in schools increasingly use technology taking advantage of the possibilities it offers to improve the way they learn.

The video of Santillana because he seems to want to present what is the work behind the educational content and justify the investments that families have to make each year in the books. The video shows a journey to the heart of editorial production and explains how a textbook is made, how digital content is made, what processes are involved, what research is needed and especially how many professionals work very hard to get kids to understand and learn new knowledge.

In the video you can see what are the stages from when a legislative change takes place until the material reaches the classrooms in a process involving editors, authors, model makers, designers, illustrators, developers, and finally the teachers and students who use them to keep the knowledge chain alive.

I congratulate Santillana for the video and of course it seems very important to explain how to achieve an editorial process that arrives on time every year to the classrooms throughout Spain.
