My Take

As an educator, I frequently use Flipboard in my classes to curate timely, relevant articles and multimedia content aligned with our learning goals. Instead of relying solely on static textbooks, Flipboard allows me to create dynamic, "living" content libraries tailored to my students' interests and needs.

How I Use It

As an educator, I frequently use Flipboard in my classes to curate timely, relevant articles and multimedia content aligned with our learning goals. Instead of relying solely on static textbooks, Flipboard allows me to create dynamic, "living" content libraries tailored to my students' interests and needs.

One robust use case is having students collaborate to co-curate class Flipboard magazines on particular topics we study. They get to practice finding credible sources, evaluating information critically, and making decisions about what's worth including. Flipboard transforms the learning experience into an active process of knowledge construction rather than passive consumption.
