About Goodgrades Digital Media
Welcome to the Internet’s 100% electronic publishing host. At
Goodgrades Digital Media, we are an exclusive producer of academic digital
material for web-based consumption. Goodgrades provides readers
the unique experience of being able to read text, view jpeg photographs,
listen to audio files and watch video clips – all from the same
web-based publication. By utilizing the web in this fashion we offer
both the reader and the author exceptional publishing capabilities.
Read Text – in a quick and easy format
It is no surprise that many students have a difficult time reading college
level textbooks. Many of these expensive texts tend to be big, bulky,
and overloaded with tons of information; all written in a rather arcane
language. At Goodgrades we can’t promise that the language
will be any less arcane, but we can promise that the book will not be
as expensive or as bulky -- as it is located on a secure server. Each
chapter is subdivided into pop-up sections; thus the reader doesn’t “feel” he
or she is reading a large book, but rather a compendium of short sections.
View media – without a separate CD or DVD
Some publishers enclose or “bundle” a CD or DVD with their
publication. In doing so, they have inadvertently created one more
item that the student must worry about losing or damaging. Additionally,
some publishers even add the price of the CD onto the textbook. At
Goodgrades Digital Media all of our publications have video and audio
capability presented in a safe and ‘un-losable fashion’ --
at no additional cost to the reader.
Create and Publish – Almost instantly
Authors will love Goodgrades as they can create and publish written
text, as well as digital audio and video in a quick and seamless fashion. Authors
can select two methods of marketing their publication; at a conventional
bookstore or online through our secure shopping cart service - or both.
The cost of marketing, producing, printing and distributing paperbound
books is expensive. If you add on the cost of producing a CD and/or
DVD well, you get the picture. At Goodgrades the overhead is less. Each
book is self-marketed by the author. Since Goodgrades utilizes
a digital template, production and printing costs are less. As a result
of these cost savings both the reader and the author benefit. In
fact, authors that contract with Goodgrades are surprised to discover
the liberal compensation packages that are available.
