Blog post 12

CREATE MY OWN BLOG ASSIGNMENT

1.Watch this Video: Pinterest tutorial 1:32
After watching the video, explain what Pinterest is and discuss education ideas that you can post on Pinterest.




Pinterest is a virtual pin board that lets people organize and share ideals that they find on the web. Pinterest allows users to create and manage theme-based image collections. If you find something interesting online you can pin the picture up on your pin board. Members of Pinterest can browse other pin boards for inspiration. If they see something that they like they can re-pin the image to their own collections or like the photo. Most Pin boards are listed by themed so that pins can easily be organized, categorized and discovered by other users.

Pinterest is a powerful tool that can be used for many different purposes. Many teachers have already taken advantage of the many different tools that pinterest has to offer. Teachers can use Pinterest to find lesson plans and organize their ideals. A board can be created for each subject and unit to help the teachers keep ideals organized. Teachers can collaborate with other teachers that share the same interest. They can share lesson plans, projects and teaching ideals. The DIY and Crafts category on Pinterest can help teachers find great craft ideals for their classrooms. Last week I created a Pinterest account and spent hours playing around with different craft projects.

  1. Another Pinterest. You make 6 of the blogs I have read. Where did this interest in Pinterest originate?
