Think of Padlet as a digital cork board or wall where your students can post text, images, video, and links relating to a topic. Padlet boards can be set up in a variety of different ways. Each board can have its own topic or guiding question that you can ask students to answer or create a series of questions where students can post their responses.

Padlet allows user to leave comments on posts (you must turn this feature on), which enables discussion between users.

Finally, Padlet has a variety of formats to choose from to help arrange posts and students' thinking. They even have a canvas features where ideas can be linked together, like a mind map.

If you are new to Padlet, under their new licensing policy, you can create up to 3 free Padlet walls.
