  1. Welcome to… Pinterest and Polyvore in the Classroom Let's begin with a get to know you!

  2. Food for Thought You'll find boredom where these is the absence of a good idea. ~Earl Nightingale

  3. Teachers make the worst students. • If you can’t be nice, be quiet. • PARTICIPATE! • Take breaks as needed. • Feedback is appreciated!

  4. So What’s Pinterest? • Pinterest is a virtual pinboard. • Think of it as an online bulletin board. • It is a way to digitally store ideas, virtually collaborate, and create mood boards. • You can create private boards (3) • You can create public boards and invite other pinners to pin as well! • It has many in class applications and my students LOVE to use it.

  5. So, What’s Polyvore? • Polyvore is a virtual closet. • It is a little more difficult to use AT FIRST than Pinterest. • It only works with Google Chrome at my school. • Can be used in conjunction with Pinterest.

  6. What’s in it for me? • Your students will be... • more engaged, interested, having fun, showing and telling, challenged, creative, quicker, researching (without plagiarism), applying, sharing, collaborating, and a whole lot more. • It's also less messy than making collages with fashion magazines and it is constantly updating. • Best of all, it's easy to grade because it is VISUAL. • Beware…grading is subjective...

  7. Class IDeas • Apparel • Cultural Project – See my pinterest board. • 6.01 - Dressing for different occasions, different body shapes • Use Polyvore to create 1 or 3 or 5 outfits representing...fads, classics, uniforms, style, and on and on…

  8. Adding text is simple! • Students can explain why they made the choices they did. • HOT because they are APPLYING.

  9. Class IDeas • 6.02 - Pin examples of quality workmanship, good fit/poor fit • OR Use Polyvore to make an outfit you would wear. Print it. Hover over the clothing items and record the costs on a separate sheet. Show the MATH of cost per wear for this outfit if you will wear it 15 times in a year. Don't forget to include dry cleaning costs.

  10. Class IDeas • 7.01 - Pin the steps you took while doing your own laundry....explain the pictures and the process of each step • 9.01 - Pin fibers on two boards - Natural and Manufactured - include the fibers and examples of each fiber being used in clothing/products

  11. Feeling deflated? • Keep it simple, silly. • No Shame. • Love the bad kids. • When in doubt, wear hats. • Worksheets are as fun to grade as they are to do….they’re NOT.
