Zinepal is used to create your own printable magazines and ebooks. Not only does this open up a whole new world for our students to explore publishing and to see there name in print, it also can solve many of the budget problem teachers face when wanting to establish a school newpaper or literary magazine. What better way to get these project started then by allowing our students to be responsible for their "copy" and find out how easy it is to upload from their personal blogs, websites, or RSS feed into a converted PDF file ready to print. How awesome is this tool at a time where our art programs are being drastically cut?!
This sounds like it would be great for a creative writing class whose class project is to create a magazine with their writing. It could also be used for students writing articles in any subject. Good choice Trisha!
