Ways To Use Pinterest


         Pinterest has the reputation of being the social network platform of women. There are hundreds of boards that fit the typical cliché of teenie girls with movie star crushes, women in their twenties and thirties obsessed with their future wedding dresses, bored housewives decorating their fictitious mansions, shopaholics who pin their dream wardrobes.

Can Social Media Have a Role to Play in Managing a Successful Classroom? This post is part of C.M Rubin’s monthly series in the Huffington post: The Global Search for Education: Our Top 12 Global Teacher Blogs. This month we are answering the following prompt: Can Social Media Have a Role to Play in Managing a Successful Classroom? As in previous posts in the series, She is examining the prompt from a semantic point of view and asks herself immediately: What do we consider ” managing a successful classroom” (and even what does it successful mean)? She also stumbled immediately over the word “CAN” and cringed when she wondered if it could say “Should” or “Must”?  Semantics aside and out with an easy and short response: YES, social media can play a role in a successful classroom.
