McGraw-Hill Higher Education announces expanded availability of custom publishing platform -

McGraw-Hill Higher Education, a unit of McGraw-Hill Education, has announced the expanded availability of McGraw-Hill Create, an innovative platform that gives instructors unprecedented control over and customisation of university classroom content in English, Italian and Spanish - and by the end of 2011, Chinese and Marathi.

Expanding the reach of McGraw-Hill's content, Create is now available at colleges and universities throughout Africa, Asia, Australia, Canada, Europe, Latin America, New Zealand, the Middle East and India through the company's international subsidiaries. The McGraw-Hill Create platform enables instructors to easily customise digital content for their courses, combining their own course-specific materials with a range of other resources.

Instructors will now gain instant access to a vast library of McGraw-Hill resources to develop instructional materials adapted specifically to the needs of local markets. At Create's core is a Google-like search engine functionality that enables professors to immediately pull from a wide range of quality content, including 4,000 McGraw-Hill textbooks, 5,500 articles, 11,000 literature, philosophy and humanities readings, and 25,000 business case studies from prominent providers such as the Harvard Business School.

To simplify and streamline the custom publishing process, an index and table of contents is automatically generated for each Create project. Create allows instructors to easily save and archive projects to work on at another time or edit for in the future. Instructors can customise the look and feel of their Create project by selecting a cover design and adding their name and course information. Additionally, instructors can share Create projects with colleagues for review, making content customisation a collaborative experience.
