Virtual Books with Scribd


I mentioned Scribd in an earlier post as a great way to get pdfs on-line. Students can easily view and download teacher-created workbooks, brochures, criteria sheets etc.

Here's one more way to use this service: virtual books. Just like Issuu, you can upload student productions and have them appear as flippable e-books. The interface is clean-looking and easy to use.

Hint: You may want to edit the embed html to remove the tags and references to other material on Scribd. For visibility, you might also need to adjust the window size (to 400x350) in order to paste into a blog.
