You'll feel like a superhero. The above comments are from Padlet's hype...but I recently learned about this tool for collaboration at a conference. It seems to be a wall where you can collaboratively post things. You do not need to sign up for an account to use it. From the little I've used it, it seems worth exploring. Lisa

In my experience, all assignments in our courses are taught and completed in computer labs, we are supposed to attend several hours or more of professional development, teaching assistants and faculty are encouraged to pursue a certificate in teaching with technology, and in addition, more experienced teaching assistants routinely share their knowledge and experience in working with different types of technology with their colleagues who are just starting. The attitude of faculty and their perceived behavioral control are the main concern to their intention to use the technology tools.
