At the social networking session on Friday's prof dev day, one of our administrators asked if there was a Reader's Digest for web 2 applications. I responded that it's people who do what I do: surf the web, play with the toys and read, read, read all day. However, what I didn't tell him was that I have a couple of resources that do function a bit like the Reader's Digest for me. The many times aforementioned Free Tech For Teachers (source of today's post), Wes Fryer's "Moving at the Speed of Creativity" and "Digitzd"are among my favorites.
So, to today's topic, Youpublisher. Youpublisher is a free, online service that turns your pdf's into online magazines. Very cool, and a fantastic way for students to publish their work. Francoise, one of our French teachers, has her French IV students do a literary magazine, and we usually find a way to put it up on the web so parents can see it. This takes it one step farther! Even better, she can embed the code into her SWIFT page and parents can read the publication right there.
Come to think of it, our Journalism teacher was asking about something similar just the other day!
