Update April 2020: The resource mentioned in this article is no longer online.
Page Flip-Flap is a simple tool for turning your Word documents, PDFs, and images into an online book with page-turning effects. Page Flip-Flap is similar to tools like YouBlisher that I’ve previously highlighted. To use Page Flip-Flap you create your documents as you normally would. When you’re ready to publish just upload your document to Page Flip-Flap and they will convert it into a document that you can display with page-turning effects. You can share your finished document via url or by embedding it into a webpage.
Applications for Education
If you’re looking for a nice way to highlight your students’ best writing try a service like Page Flip-Flap. You might consider combining all of the best writing for a marking period into one large ebook for parents and others to view on your classroom website or blog.
