Utilizing Padlet
At this point in the module, you have created a Padlet account, built a wall, and posted content on the wall. To finish this module, you will be introduced to how to use the wall settings for classroom instruction. Due to the easy nature of posting to a wall without needing to sign in, classroom teachers can use Padlet to stimulate discussion. This "hands-on" activity was developed in order to show you how to utilize Padlet in the classroom to facilitate discussion. In this case, the Padlet wall will be used for students to post responses. You will be able to utilize real work to explore the tenants of how to gauge the quality of the responses sent to that wall.
