If you find a blog post useful, you may want to use it with students as stimulus or perhaps encourage them to look further at the issues raised by the post. To use a post with students, you may find the Web2PDF tool useful. This is a great site that will convert a blog posting or blog page to a pdf file for you. Having the posting as a pdf file may make it easier to use with students or even perhaps to make the file available to them through your own intranet, departmental web site or perhaps Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). Web2PDf is available from the following web address:
To covert a blog page or post is a simple operation:
- Copy the web address of the blog post or page you wish to convert (simply highlight the address in the address bar and press ctrl+c on the keyboard to copy it)
- Follow the link to Web2pdfconvert.com
- Paste the web address (ctrl+v) into the box on the page and click the ‘Convert to PDF’ button’. Your pdf file will shortly be made available as a downloadable file.
It’s as simple as that. This process will work for any web page.
I think that this is an extremely useful resource, I always convert web pages/articles into .pdf files to share them with my students but I’m not always working with my laptop. This is great!
Thank you for sharing
