Padlet is a digital board that can be used for for professional development for teachers or with students. The teacher creates an account, then creates a digital bulletin board that only requires web access via a link. Links can be emailed or posted in Google Classroom. Students can post using the link without signing in, which makes it easy to use. This tool can be used for brainstorming, formative assessment, collaboration, or an exit ticket.
I'm looking forward to try this site. You can create an account for free and then create bulletin boards that the teacher, student or class can use to collect pictures, text, even videos. Students can use this to create reports about topics. Teachers can create class discussion which can include media. Teachers can also use this as a place to turn in assignments. There are many possibilities.
Padlet is an online bulletin board software that is handy for teachers who want to go paperless in their classrooms. Simply create a Project Wall using Padlet and add all the necessary information the students need that you would usually print as hand-outs. Because its a digital platform, any changes you make to the Padlet will instantly take effect. No need to reprint documents, just share the link. Students can also use Padlet to add their own notes for discussions.
