The Basic Template
This is the basic template that you can find in the template page when opening iBooks Author. The image shows a basic layout of a chapter page. in the top left of the page it has the chapter title and under it has the a large title of the chapter. the title is used as the heading for that chapter and then it has space for an opening paragraph. on the right of the page is one large image that would be relevant to the chapter subject. This helps add visual content to the book making it visually appealing to the target audience whilst also helping divide the book in to several chapters.
This second image shows a section page, it includes the same heading and section title in the top left of the page and the same line deciding the page down the middle as the chapter page.
The main differences between this section page and the main chapter page is firstly the space under the heading where they have space for a list in a coloured box rather than the opening paragraph that they have on the chapter page. By placing the list or bulet points in a coloured box it makes them stand out from the rest of the content, the reader would find this helpful as they are short to read and excluded from the main text.
The second main change change they have made is to the whole of the right side of the page where they have space for text content rather than the large image found on the chapter page. This is where the main content of the chapter starts.
This third image shows another content page, this is quite simple and still has the central line dividing the paging in two. This is one of the most simple pages and as it just includes two columns of text where the content would sit. Although these pages are quite simple they are still very effective as they can be used for four paragraphs of text or could allow images, videos or other content to be included.
