Learnist vs. Pinterest

This small table is based on a comparison between the two platforms Learnist and Pinterest by Tracy Terry .




Pinterest
Learnist
A pinboard-style photo-sharing website
A social learning site that categorize the content by boards, and share it with followers
The design encourages users to focus on pictures and people
The design encourages users to focus on boards
Allow to add pins to a board
Allow to add boards to boards

Better chance to be an educational tool. It helps to track the progress

Embed PDFs, slides, and flash games in addition to other media


Who is the winner?

For me, Learnist.

    I really like learnist's ability to track progress. To me, pinterest is more of a strictly visual or hobby thing, and learnist is about intentional sequencing for instruction.
