Digital Version Available

May 27, 2022

​​

Since 2019, the ATA Magazine has been available in a digital format that has been maximized for viewing on your computer or mobile device.

You can access the digital version of the latest issue by visiting the ATA website.

   

Multiple views

Our digital “Digimag” platform ­offers two main ways to view magazine ­content: Page View and Contents View. Page View shows the printed magazine pages on the screen and enables viewers to flip from page to page. Clicking on an article title opens up the article in a ­different window. Page View is the ­default view for larger ­devices like ­laptop and desktop computers.

Contents View is a tiled, stacked list of images and article titles. Clicking on an item opens up the article in a different window. Contents View is the default view for smaller devices like tablets and cellphones.

To switch between Page View and Contents View, move your cursor toward the top part of the page window until a drop-down menu appears. From there you can select your desired view.

Catch up on back issues

Using the digital version is a good way to catch up on back issues of the ATA ­Magazine. Within Contents View, you’ll see covers of previous issues stacked along the left side of the current issue.

Purposeful printing

Research conducted by the magazine publishing industry shows that a significant proportion of readers still enjoy reading their favourite publications in printed hard copy. This preference, combined with knowledge about the dangers of excessive screen time, means that printed copies remain a mainstay of the ATA Magazine.

If your school receives too many or too few copies of the ATA Magazine, please inform your school representative. The number of copies received can be adjusted by emailing managing editor Cory Hare at cory.hare@ata.ab.ca.
