Pupils can, of course, blog for a worldwide audience,
or create a website, or contribute to a collaboration site.
Pupils can create and produce books and newsletters that are DTP'd at school and distributed within the community.
And there's Blurb.....
http://www.blurb.com/
Blurb is a book publishing website... giving a really professional look to publications, giving a real sense of authorship, real purpose, a real audience and a really compelling reason for the authors to produce materials of the very highest standard.
Books can be produced in 'standard' book form - and/or as e-books for IPad and IPod.
The sheer excitement and adrenalin rush of seeing one's efforts displayed in these forms surely cement the deal for our Authors...
There is also a Blurb+ App, costing 69p, that allows you to make instant e-books direct onto Ipad and IPod.... a recommend.
Also, remember Storybird from previous blog postings - an online book publishing tool. One of the beauties of this resource is the ability to print the pictures off first... allowing children to construct a visual plan using the images to support their writing.
