Community reviews for Issuu

Issuu was a good experience for the students. Not only did the students have an opportunity to read and respond to a proposed bill, they also experienced what it feels like to be published. The students were excited that their publishing was view-able by other students. I liked that the website made the students feel a since of self worth in writing their papers. Instead of just writing another paper for another class. The website is easy to use and it is easy to upload to the website. Although it was not used to enhance information, most students were extremely excited to use the website to share their article.

Issuu, a Copenhaagen-based, global literature and publishing portal entices high school students into a truly global library of free magazines, anthologies, and multimedia e-books. With Scandanavian minimalist design, the site also inspires students to write and share their own works - of research, opinion, or imagination. Recently improved classification, collection, and search functions, enable teachers to curate content that is educational, inoffensive, and curriculum relevant. I've particularly appreciated the ability to upload content in virtually every file format imaginable. And like Flickr, the Issuu site enables creators to specify how their publications may be used, including granting users the right to download publications for offline reading.

Great online tool to upload documents and creates them in an interactive magazine, book style for viewing and flipping through pages. Students could create a magazine or newsletter project to post on this website for their assignment. Easy to use. Note that with the free version adds and other publications will show up around your publication that may or may not always be topical or appropriate.
