What is PADLET? How can we use it?


What is PADLET?  How can we use it?
Hello everyone .How are you …This week’s  topic and assignment are related to ‘’Padlet’’.


 Here I have written my opinion about padlet accompanied by some info and a link as well .If you want take a look at  it and feel free to comment. Thanks in advance! J
As a matter of fact I found this application or lets call it program very interesting for the simple fact that I didn’t encounter difficulties  using it,either the program itself and even posting on it was easy . I explored a lot on padlet even online and is a tool that for real allows you the flexibility to share information and opinions .Relating to the use and  the help that padlet as a tool offers is very useful not only for students but for teachers as well.We as teachers can use it throughout the whole year to share resources and links with student.

Padlet  allows to type ,to record your voice, to add a hyperlink ,to add photos as well as to add documents. It is and must be every teacher’s toolkit, to my opinion it is very useful for real  with quite a great design.
.
 You can customize your Padlet page with a different background, title and more.
Even though I expressed my opinion about padlet above I want to share this piece of article which involves the uses of padlet.So how can we use padlet ? I found them quite interesting take a look.
Padlet as I said even above  is a free, online "virtual wall" tool where users can express thoughts on topics of their choice. It's like a piece of paper, but on the Web. Uses for Padlet in your classroom could be endless, but here are a few ideas to get started:
1.      Book Reviews :Padlet offers a great venue for students to share their thoughts. Young people can highlight favorite quotes, ask questions, discuss characters and more.. 
2.      Topic Summary:  Useful for any subject from math to earth science, Padlet can help teachers summarize a large amount of information and present it in a visually pleasing way. Educators can put in text, photos, graphs and other learning tools and share the image with students before a big test or discussion. 
3.      Greeting Cards or "Thank You" Wall:  Have you had a speaker come in recently to share his/her knowledge on a particular subject? Or did a famous author come in and read his/her latest book? Padlet is a great tool for sending a group "thank you" note.
4.      Questions Board:  Students can access a "questions" board 24/7 and anonymously post questions. The teacher can then read off and answer the questions each day.
5.      Opinion/Forum:  Educators can post a particular topic or issue, and students can post their opinions on the subject. This is a great building block for teaching students how to write opinion pieces or persuasive essays.
