Tackk likens itself to a digital bulletin board, but unlike Pinterest
you have a creation tool built into the interface. "How is Tackk different than other social networks (i.e., Facebook, Pinterest, Twitter)? Think of Tackk as your hub of creation.

The above example is placed into this blog page using embed code. You could also share Tackk using links in discussion boards or post to Pinterest boards. There is a print button that could be used to send to a printer or save to a PDF. I have noticed that some teachers have created shared class accounts in which students create Tackks on various parts of a subject.
