The Final Blog: Pinterest

Overall, I believe our project worked out well and incorporated the technology into our presentation. The site itself helped us due to its broad uses like sharing. We were able to cite our references directly to the site in which we found them by Pinterest's tool of embedding. In addition, we could pin examples to further justify our arguments and findings. It was easy for us to switch back and forth to complete our portions of the project as well with the easy surfing of the site. We had a little bit of trouble with including our SlideShare slides as the links didn't want to work. I feel as though the internet connection was a bit of a hindrance not necessarily Pinterest itself. I feel as though we could have maybe organized our Boards and Pins a little bit better as they were somewhat unorganized, but I feel it was not a major issue to our project. In addition, I think we could have done a better job of highlighting negative consequences. I feel like I may have not accurately explained those.  But in all, the site itself is extremely well developed and can be used for almost anything at all. In particular, education benefits from Pinterest due to the large sharing network. Basically, anything one would need or want is able to be found on this site. I feel that the site really has no negative consequences when using it in an educational setting. It can be quite useful in helping others with projects. I am very happy we were able to use Pinterest and I plan on using it at my job from now on to help me with planning activities and room themes for my daycare kids.
