This article really helped me to understand how Pinterest can be a great tool for use in education. It demonstrated how it is effective for organizing vast quantities of information and brainstorming ideas though a visual nature making it particularly suited to engaging learners.

Social Media And Learning: Interview with Jane Hart: The eLearning Coach

Social Media And Learning: Interview with Jane Hart: The eLearning Coach | EdTech Tools | Scoop.it
Patty Ball's insight:

"The difference with social learning is that it supports conversation and discussion and learning from one another, whilst “traditional” self-paced learning is about learning from a computer without reference to others—it’s just content, content, content. We are all social beings, so social learning is a more natural way of learning." Jane Hart

Social Content Curation for Learning Communities

Social Content Curation for Learning Communities | EdTech Tools | Scoop.it
An infographic I created for a MOOC at Stanford: Designing New Learning Environments. Made with too little space, too little skills, too little time and too little research. Lots of fun though.

Kirsten Wilson's curator insight, June 19, 2013 11:26 AM

Interesting take on a few forms of curation that can be used.  Infographic is, as the creator remarked, a little crowded, however the information is useful.

Begoña Iturgaitz's curator insight, June 19, 2013 12:22 PM

do we know the actual size of what we're traying to make?
