      Really? Never thought of that before! 
  • simpler and more basic also more academic.

    Interesting to have in mind the students`perspective... Not sooo related to the topic, but good food for thought about how students feel about using a certain social network.

    Not mention Pinterest is really cumbersome to use with students unless you share an account. its really great for teachers to share ideas though!

    I think that Diigo is more academic. Pinterest is nice when we want ideas for an activity, but not for discussions or serious texts.

    It's interesting that AASL (The American Association of School Librarians) chose Pinterest for one of their "best Websites for teaching and learning" but not Diigo. Sometimes I think their choices are more about flashiness than about content, although I do love some of their choices.

  • Create connections, encourage collaboration, ignite discussions, or simply share mutual interests through Pinterest. Uploaded or “pin” images and videos from websites, blogs, or your own computer, smartphone, or tablet to create boards. These boards can be private or public, and others can be invited to pin on any of your boards. Any “pin” can be "repinned", and all pins will link back to their source. Grades 6-12. Tip: Have students work in groups to create research projects and share their sources visually.

      This is about Pinterest.

    A list of top learning tools (you can navigate to past years as well). Note Diigo isn't on it, and I didn't see it in past years. But Pinterest is there.
