Madmagz is an online platform that allows easily create a school journal with your students. A fun and interesting educational tool to turn your class into a real newsroom.
Madmagz allows you to create paper, PDF or web magazines from the same interface and in collaborative mode. The newspapers created with this tool are of professional graphic quality, which will enhance the editorial content produced in class.
The platform works with a system of pre-designed mock-ups that you will then be able to customize according to your particular needs. Madmagz offers a real online PAO studio. You choose your model, your cover and each of your pages. Each of them is composed of blocks of text or images. It is in each of its blocks that you will be able to drag your content. Upload an image from your computer or a text by simply copy and paste and the trick is played.
You are the artistic director. You can change the font, you can change its size, color. The result of any changes is displayed immediately and the project is saved automatically at all times.
It is easy to insert a zone of interactivity in your journal. Simply frame the area you want to make interactive and then choose the type of interactivity you want to install, a link, sound, video, etc. When readers browse your newspaper online, one click will be enough to start the animation.
Once your journal is finished. All you have to do is publish it. Madmagz allows you to share it via a unique link by email or on social networks. By following the link, recipients will have access to your online newspaper. You can also get a code that will allow you to insert the journal on your website or blog. Practical. Finally, you can also download it in PDF format so that you can then print it on paper.
New models are added regularly. Latest, a mock-up to produce a report on the third observation period in the form of a magazine.
Madmagz allows you to edit a journal together. A good idea. This will allow you to ask a student or group of students to take care of a particular topic or page. Madmagz offers a simple interface and ergonomics to put the tool in all hands. Ease of handling and use that makes it possible to forget the tool to focus on the essentials of the content.
During the last press and media week at Madmagz School, many schools used it to put students in a position to produce information through a school newspaper or magazine. More than 1000 establishments registered for the service, which for the occasion and for a few days was free of charge. 8 000 newspapers were created in the space of a few days.
Madmagz offers a limited free version and a special education subscription that allows all teachers and students in your school to create an unlimited number of magazines for a fixed price that remains quite reasonable. (EUR 59 per year for a school with 100 pupils). The edu version offers more than 20 mock-ups, the possibility to work as a team, add links to videos or sounds, export the final result to PDF, integrate it on a blog. It is compatible tablet and ENT.
A good tool, easy to use, to value a group work of your students. To be tested.

Hello
Thank you for letting us know about this tool. (your newsletters allow you to discover interesting and practical tools)
I just tested Madmagz on a free version this morning. It is not bad at all. Quite easy to use when you put yourself in it. What I fundamentally criticise him for when I import an image from my computer is that the format is almost never suitable. And it is impossible to adapt it without trimming a part. So I only use the full page option and that is a pity. I will continue to test to try to adapt to the constraints and see what I can get from positive 😉
Have a good day

I just subscribed and it's really cool …
At first this site looks good although the columns are not linked as in a newspaper, you have to have a limited space in each column and go to the second (it does not automatically switch from one column to another); the pb is that the site disconnects constantly and you lose all its modifications, it is very annoying especially when you have just spent 1 hour writing and layout. Another negative point is the delivery of the print, the delivery times are not respected so when you wait for your docts in an emergency it is serious (I paid the express deadline 3 days and it happened on the 5th day). the best is just to buy the pdf once the work is finished and to print from a printer at the corner of the street type COPYTOP who does the work in a few hours.
