Start this check early. It may take a while to process if your school's filters are blocking it.
Your Padlet support boards are the biggest difference between the guided program and the independent program. They are what allows your museum educator to provide 1:1 asynchronous support to you and your students.
If you would like a support board, fill in this form to request one.
Your ROM educator will create your board and add you as an administrator. Once you are an administrator, you will have control over all security features
We will add you using the address provided on your application. If you wish to use a different email for Padlet, please contact your assigned educator and let them know.
You must accept the email invite to access your board.
You can decide how you want your students to access the board, or if you want to be your class liaison.
We will provide a template layout for you, but you can customize your board as you wish.
Additional resources are available on the Teacher Resources Board
Watch Sarah's 1-hour Padlet Training for Teachers from Logics Academy.
Our Teacher Support Padlet has a Q&A section where you can submit questions, as well as sections for Frequently Asked Questions, ROM Resources, and Minecraft's Troubleshooting articles for most common problems.
Book your Virtual Visits on our Lesson page.
If you need additional 1:1 Support, Book a Support Session with your ROM Educator
Note: This is a Teams meeting for you and your ROM educator. This is not an extra session for your class.
