I believe I met this standard of being an Innovative Designer because I used a certain design process (Canva) to create an eBook - something I once thought was impossible for me. I created an artifact that my students can look at, and I realized that I can create an eBook for just about anything I plan to teach. It is engaging and simply fun to use something new to learn from. I used a design process that made it easy for my readers to navigate and I did a lot of heavy editing to make sure my eBook was legible and nicely displayed. I persevered through this assignment, because it was challenging at first, but I soon realized how fun this process was. I remained open-minded as I worked through this assignment. I plan to implement this in the future, and perhaps in future grammar lessons or as a unit plan where we read a book together and try to digest it. I might even include videos from Crash Course to allow my students simple summaries of chapters from books that I find useful, etc. and add in assignment sheets that my students can work through as they read.

I would use an eBook to introduce a new concept that students haven't learned before, or maybe have struggles with. That way they have a guide to refer back to, and especially if there already isn't one made. I could differentiate it and make many different kinds of eBooks for any subject that I could use in my classroom. I could do one on writing, grammar, spelling, vocabulary, etc. I could even turn the eBook into a workbook for students to work through.
