Organizing Content
with Flipboard Magazines
See the resources below in a Flipboard Magazine.
After this session you will be able to
- find and organize content from external sources
- create and update personalized magazines for public or private use
- share your magazines so others may get information for it.
Why Flipboard?
Flipboard is extremely easy to use and available on all platforms. Users can access the same data on a mobile device or a computer. Curators (people creating magazines) can pull information from any source on the web and put it into their own magazine for readers to access. Magazines, both public and private, can also have multiple collaborators, allowing you to spread the work among multiple people.
Using Flipboard
