Let's Collaborate!

Introducing Padlet

Psssttt... another technology tool has been discovered! 
It is a game changer in the classroom.

What is Padlet? 


Padlet is an exceptional digital communication platform that fundamentally transforms the way students and teachers interact, making learning engaging and enjoyable for everyone involved.

This digital platform can be filled with a diverse array of content, including:

  • words

  • images

  • videos

  • hyperlinks


Its accessibility from various devices enhances its usability, allowing users to interact with the information seamlessly. This flexibility and convenience make it significantly more effective than traditional noticeboards found in the physical world, where information can be limited and harder to reach.


You can begin your 'visual collaboration'  by signing up on the Padlet website by clicking on the photo below:





But wait....I know that you are wondering if it is free.

Well here is the breakdown below:


There are different versions you can choose from that includes many different needs. They are: 


  • Free Version - best for a single-user

  • Platinum Version - best for a single-user

  • Classroom Version - best for classroom collaboration and sharing

  • Team Version - best for teams working together


Would I recommend using this tool? 

The answer is YES! 


Integrating this tool into the classroom will enhance students' learning experiences by fostering enjoyment and engagement. 


Padlet serves as a versatile educational platform that allows educators to create interactive boards, facilitating collaboration and idea-sharing among students. 


By incorporating Padlet into teaching strategies, educators can not only diversify their technology toolkit but also inspire excitement and motivation in their students. 


This innovative tool encourages active participation, enabling learners to express their thoughts creatively while working together, making it a valuable addition to any modern classroom environment. 


However, I feel a bit sad about something 😔: as educators, we are always working with a limited budget 💰 while trying to discover the best technology tools to use in the classroom. The free version of this tool is quite limited, allowing the creation of only three Padlets. After that, you have to upgrade to create additional Padlets. This means that, unfortunately, using this tool requires spending money.


Stay tuned as we uncover the next exciting technology tool! You won't want to miss what we discover next!
