Padlet
Padlet is an online collaboration platform that allows you to paste and share text, images, videos, links, and documents in real time on a digital bulletin board (virtual wall board).
Basic concepts
•
When a teacher creates a "Padlet Board" and shares a link or QR code, students can access it and upload text, images, videos, files, etc. like Post-it notes.
•
All posts are reflected in real time, enabling immediate feedback and interaction in both face-to-face and remote classes.
•
It is highly accessible as it can be accessed from almost any device, including web browsers, apps (iOS/Android), and Chromebooks.
7 layouts (board type)
Padlet offers a variety of layouts to choose from depending on the purpose of your activity.
•
Wall : Posts are automatically placed like bricks, making it ideal for free-flowing opinion gathering and brainstorming.
•
Stream : A feed format that flows from top to bottom, good for relay discussions or sequential listing of opinions.
•
Grid : It is arranged in a box shape and is useful for gallery and portfolio exhibitions.
•
Shelf : It is divided into columns by category, like a Kanban board, and is suitable for organizing by topic or group.
•
Map : You can mark locations on a world map and post them, making it effective for geography, history, and social studies classes.
•
Canvas : You can freely arrange posts and connect them with arrows, making it suitable for mind maps and relationship diagrams.
•
Timeline : Used to organize historical timelines and project schedules by arranging them along a horizontal time axis.
Key functions from a teacher's perspective
•
You can allow comments and reactions (likes, ratings, etc.) to posts, allowing for peer feedback activities.
•
Student safety and class control are possible through filtering profanity, approving posts before publication, and setting anonymity/real name.
•
By entering a topic using the AI board creation function, you can quickly create a board with automatically collected related data, and you can also edit and supplement it yourself.
•
You can export your completed board as an image, PDF, or CSV, or copy and share it with other teachers.
Utilization in K-12
•
Brainstorming/Gathering Opinions : Ask a question at the beginning of the class and have all students post answers simultaneously to check in real time.
•
Exit Ticket : At the end of class, have students post "one key line learned today" to quickly gauge their understanding.
•
Group Project : Create separate sections for each group using the shelf layout to gather research results, images, videos, and more in one place.
•
Gallery Exhibition : Upload student work (art, writing, photography, etc.) to a grid layout and share your thoughts in the comments.
•
History and Society : Create a historical timeline using a timeline or mark major events and locations on a map.
•
Reading Activity : Share your impressions of the book you read, memorable passages, and reasons for recommending it on the wall.
Use at universities
•
Discussion board : The professor presents a topic, and students post their opinions and evidence, then engage in a discussion through comments.
•
Group Portfolio : Record the progress of your team project on one board, and organize both interim and final results.
•
Peer Review : Students upload assignments (drafts, presentations, etc.) and other students provide feedback through comments and responses.
•
Material Curation : Students work together to create a shared collection of papers, articles, videos, etc. on a specific topic.
•
Reflection Journal : Record and accumulate your learning reflections or practical experiences in a stream format after class.
Fee structure
•
The free plan allows you to create a limited number of boards (5 by default), but you can create more by archiving existing boards.
•
There's a "Padlet for Schools" plan, which allows the entire school to subscribe to unlimited boards, admin features, and enhanced privacy protections.
