Padlet

There are so many uses of Padlet within the classroom setting, it is hard to begin.  I started this "Tickets Out the Door Series" of blog posts when I was trying to figure out a few options to use in my own classroom.  I started by looking at the least complicated program, Answer Garden.  I moved to Lino, which is a nice "sticky note" style collaboration tool with a lot of powerful features.

This post is about Padlet, a very powerful app that continues with the collaboration aspect of Lino, but also builds in an easy way to have students design and layout windows that are customized to the user. In other words, this can be a student creative tool for their own group work.  Here are some great links to tutorials:

• Brittany Horn (2015) Padlet's Many Uses in the Classroom. Very creative.
• Grady Edwards, Ditial Integraton Specialist published under the name AskDIS (2018) created a nice orientation video to Padlet and he threw in some classroom ideas. Getting Started with "Padlet" Tutorial. 
• Richard Byrne (2018) created 9 Ways to Add Notes to Padlet Walls video.
