Introduction

There are 3 types of popup content in eBooks:

  1. Reference section has Glossary - called glossary in C3PO https://ebooks.cpm.org/bookdb.php?title=cc1&name=reference.glossary&type=glossary
  2. Teacher section has CCS Standards - called ccss in C3PO https://ebooks.cpm.org/bookdb.php?title=cc1&name=teacher.ccss&type=ccss
  3. Teacher section has Strategies - called tstrategies in C3PO https://ebooks.cpm.org/bookdb.php?title=cc1&name=teacher.strategies&type=tstrategies

Each C3PO type will automatically show on their eBook page in alphabetical order.  An eBook page does not need to exist in order to add or use any popup content. Although, if a page exists the new popup item will be added to it.

** CCS Standards only shows in the CC1 eBook.  To access the same page in other eBooks, change the eBook name in the URL.**
