Professor, Teacher Education, Brigham Young University


"Before you use Pinterest, think in advance about what it is you want your kids to learn and what you want them to be thinking about...If you don't have a decent idea of what your instructional goal is, there's a ton of stuff on Pinterest, and you can scroll and scroll and scroll and scroll. It's much more likely for you to be sucked into that if you don't really know what you're looking for, if you don't know what your goal is."
