Pinterest is a platform where users can find and share ideas or points by posting images, videos, or links to their own or others’ boards. Users can follow, like, and comment on other users’ pins; repin content to their boards; share pins on other social media; and embed individual pins on websites. Pinterest is free to use but requires signing up for an account to save content. It was developed by Ben Silbermann, Paul Sciarra, and Evan Sharp.
Bewertung: Pinterest is a valuable tool for educators to find, pin, and share ideas. While not specifically designed for education, there are useful educational communities on the platform, such as Teachers on Pinterest and Teaching Ideas for Pinterest. In these communities, educators can cooperate, get inspired, and share ideas for lessons, including lesson plans, worksheets, images, webpages, and apps, as well as develop themselves professionally.
Kosten: Free.
