AN INTRODUCTION TO PADLET
Title: An Introduction to Padlet
Audience: Grades 4 through College
Purpose: If you are searching for an alternative to the traditional collaborative tool, then Padlet is for you. Watch this brief demonstration on how you can post information and collaborate on ideas and suggestions for an upcoming event with your group.
This can also be an alternative to the traditional poster project. Are you seeking an alternative to draining your ink cartridge dry when placing images on your tri fold? Choosing Padlet will allow you to place text, images, audio and even video on your presentation. Simply create your "Wall" and provide your teacher or professor with a link. They will then have access to your project.
My Uses: This particular tool will provide students (and teachers) with an alternative to presenting a project on the traditional poster board.
Students can also use this as a method of collaboration when planning for a particular event or presentation.
My Learners’ Uses: As my 5th grade students begin studying the events of the Civil War, they will create a timeline. The students will be placed in groups of four and each student will select 3 events surrounding the Civil War. They will indicate a date, write a paragraph about the event and find an image for their selected event. Each group will place their events in order and then present the information to the class.
