Challenges
Flickr can possibly have some pictures that aren't appropriate and/or not be good to compare and contrast for the graphic organizer. Wordle is a great site for vocabulary identification but it would frustrate the students if they can't read the words in the wordle. It could also upset the students if they don't know the meaning of the words. Pinterest has everything and more a teacher needs. So depending on the topic, a student could easily find the exact answers to the worksheet they are completing. They could also abuse the website by copying information from other sources.
