The beauty of Padlet is that I can choose to set access levels so that only I can view a Padlet on my account or I can open it up to public viewing. Derek says " I have chosen to set up this Padlet in this box style fashion however you can choose to set up any Padlet that you create in a different style. Padlet is being used extensively right now here at Dundee University - here is an example of how it is being used by Derek Robertson in the School of Education & Social Work. Padlet can also be used as a reflective tool for student comments, or as a way of gathering and demonstrating a portfolio of work or ideas. A Padlet can be set up to capture comments or feedback on their learning during the activity (Twitter - which we featured yesterday - is often used for this purpose too). A common use is that of a backchannel - a means of gathering feedback during an activity such as a lecture or a practical exercise. If you're a teacher there are many ways that Padlet could be used in a teaching situation. Padlet can also function like a 'Favourites' or 'Bookmark' facility on a web browser, except that the contents is available from any device you might be using as long as you can login to Padlet. If you're a student Padlet would be useful for brainstorming an idea or a topic, allowing everyone to paste their ideas, images, links to a central location where they could be viewed by all people within the group. Once you've created a Padlet wall it will assign a URL or web address which you can then share with a group of people - colleagues, other students and so on. Instead of pinning take-away menus, you can upload text, images, Powerpoint presentations, audio or video files, links to websites or combinations of all those things. ![]() Imagine a corkboard like you might have at home where you can pin notices, messages, photos, Post-It notes, take-away menus and so on - Padlet lets you do the same thing, but online. Padlet has been described as a sort of digital noticeboard.
