A couple of weeks ago my team and I attended Integrated Portland 2016. If you ever have the opportunity, you really should try to attend this conference. Each time I’ve gone, I’ve come away with new knowledge, ideas, inspiration, and connections. This year I went to a designing session with Kelly Kermode. I wish I could just follow this lady around so that I could learn all that she knows. At the end of the session, she mentioned Adobe Slate being a great option for newsletters. Basically, you add text to your photos, select the design to customize and then share it via email or as a link on your school website. When you’re finished, you have an appealing newsletter, in a magazine style layout, that is begging to be read. It definitely is worth trying out. It can also be a great tool for designing an invitation, report, or announcement. Be creative!
Besides being a website, it also an iPad app. It is rated 12+ and therefore only available to staff and high school students.
