Ebook Formatting Guide
No matter what kind of book you're publishing, ebook sales will probably be your biggest numbers. Since ebooks have no production costs, they let you be much more flexible in pricing, and can be a powerful marketing tool to attract new readers. So even while you're formatting for print, you should be thinking about ebook conversion. Luckily, you can do it for free, and it can be pretty easy - if you aren't picky about the little details (and I'll explain why you shouldn't be). Below you'll find a few different methods for converting your document to epub and mobi formats, as well as formatting a Smashwords file (ideal for broader distribution). Terminology Crash Course "Ebooks" are digital versions of your book that can be read on tablets and smartphones. Most ebook stores use a file format called "epub" - but Amazon/Kindle uses a slightly modified file format called "mobi." Most bookstore chains have their own ereader device and their own bookstore; but some companies like Smashwords, BookBaby, and Lulu offer "distribution" - which means they'll send your ebook out to all the online retailers and keep track of sales for you. The basics Unlike print books, for which you want everything to be "fixed" and perfect, ebooks need to "flow." This is so people using various ereaders can set their own options, change the fonts and text size, to make the reading experience suit their preferences. To achieve this, ebook formats use something very similar to html code. While you don't really need to learn this code, it will help if you need to fine tune the details.

Tomando essa premissa, o presente estudo numa investigação-ação e de carácter qualitativo, propôs-se a determinar como o m-learning e a utilização de um ebook podem melhorar a aprendizagem, aumentar a motivação e dinamismo no ensino a distância em Moçambique, tomando como caso específico do Instituto Superior de Ciências e Educação a Distância – ISCED.
