## What is Padlet?


Hey guys, I've been reading about this interesting tool known as Padlet and I would like to share with you some general information since it was a novel concept for me. I hope you enjoy reading about it as much as I did :



Padlet can be used by students and by teachers. With padlet you can create an online post-it board that you can share with any student or teacher you want. Just give them the unique Padlet link. Padlet allows you to insert ideas anonymously or with your name. It’s easy to use and very handy.

Whoever has the Padlet board opened on his smartphone or computer, can see what’s on it and what everyone is writing. Students just have to take a device and start adding little sticky notes online. They can see all the ideas gathered on the teacher board immediately.



IN THE CLASSROOM
Use a Padlet to collaborate in collecting ideas, brainstorming, and more.All students will be able to access it for free, no matter what device they have. Padlet does not show which work is attributable to which student, so you may want to require that students initial their contributions in order
to get credit.Do your students have favorites such as music or sports? Create a wall around these favorites or hobbies. Use a wall for grammar or vocabulary words. Create walls for debates or viewpoints. Post assignments, reminders, or study skills on a wall.

#This link was very helpful for me to understand how to use Padlet, I hope it will help you guys as well : https://youtu.be/V7NvOZNQ35o

Take a minute to consider what it is you and your students need, which can help to narrow the options. To do so, answer a few important questions: What is my goal?
