Using Padlet for Teaching - Technology Enhanced Learning

Padlet can be used as an icebreaker activity for synchronous or asynchronous teaching - provide a link to a Padlet wall in class or via a link and ask students to add a response in class or in time for the next session. Students can add a range of text and multimedia to their messages so you could ask students to share a favourite song, photograph, view from their window, or mark their favourite destination on a map wall.

Consider the anonymity settings and the kinds of information that you are asking students to share - rather than a photo of themselves, or their location, you could ask them to share their view or a place they would like to visit. This will allow them to be creative with their responses and share information that they are comfortable with. Teachers can also contribute to this wall, adding to the sense of community, and helping to encourage student contributions.

If you are using Padlet to collect feedback or comments in an asynchronous way, you may find that students are reluctant to comment initially. Let students know that you will be reading and responding over a two week period, for example, and perhaps bring up interesting comments in class or via email to direct students to the Padlet and see for themselves what has changed. Once students see that their messages are being responded to, they will be more comfortable adding new messages and even commenting on each other's responses.

"It is also useful in the run up to assessment when students have questions, they can post the question in Padlet, and then all students on the course can see the answer, which saves having to answer many different emails." Dr. Frances Hamilton, Associate Professor School of Law

If you are using Padlet in a live classroom setting, consider using the Canvas wall option to group comments and make connections between them. One very effective use of this wall was an activity for trainee teachers to anonymously state their concerns about taking on a new class for the first time. Over the course of the session, the instructor revisited the Padlet, colour-coding, grouping, drawing connecting arrows and commenting in person and on the wall. This not only created a resource to refer back to - and see development over the course of the programme - but closes the feedback loop for students, showing that they are not alone in their concerns, and that they are able to influence the content of the session by contributing.

Create a class blog or wall to share research - consider using a Canvas format and turning on comments and reactions to allow students to make connections and comment on each other's findings.

"I've used [Padlet] in a number of modules as an FAQ discussion board. Students prefer the anonymity of Padlet to a BB discussion board." Amanda Millmore, Associate Professor School of Law

If you choose to set Padlet contributions as a task for your students - perhaps asking students to contribute answers or comments on a reading, or suggest alternative resources, consider using the Shelf wall option to create some structure. A blank wall can be intimidating, and a scaffolded approach can encourage students to begin to share their thoughts and resources in a guided manner.

Padlet can provide a communal space to share ideas - the anonymous setting can allow for diverse opinions and experiences to be shared without compromising students' anonymity. Instructors have stated that this can be helpful in starting discussions among shy classes, or to collect opinions on a text or film which may be personal to the students.

Use the settings to ensure that only students with the link can view the wall, and turn on anonymous posting so that everyone's responses are anonymous.

Even if comments are anonymous, it is good practice for the teacher to interact with and comment on the messages. This can be done in class, or online, so works for synchronous and asynchronous teaching. Not only does this show students that the teacher is engaging with their comments, but it can be a good place to start an in-person discussion.

Students can create, collaborate and share their own Padlet walls - this could be a useful way to collect resources related to a topic, create an alternative presentation format, or take collaborative notes.

Student-collected research on a topic can be gathered in a variety of formats, images, video, audio and text on a subject, so could be used to present information on a topic instead of a Powerpoint presentation.

A Padlet wall can also be used as a collaborative notetaking tool to support students' understanding of a module. Collaborative notetaking allows students to share expertise, and if the Padlet is shared with the tutor, then clarification can be provided as needed either on the wall, or as part of any future teaching sessions. Depending on the topic, you could ask students to claim and discuss their posts in more detail, or you could draw connections between the messages and encourage students to comment on posts.

"I used Padlet widely during the pandemic when we were teaching asynchronously [...] for students to respond asynchronously to questions posed in the lecture videos and as a discussion facilitation device." Amanda Millmore, Associate Professor School of Law

Padlet allows you to make changes to the look of your wall by editing the wallpaper, fonts, and colour scheme.
* Use a sans serif font as this is easier to read for most people.
* Changing the colour scheme allows you to change the background of the messages from light to dark. Students can change the contrast of their own view of a wall by using a high contrast browser extension. They can also change the colour of their own messages, but this is limited.

You can edit the title and add a description. Consider including your module code in the title of your wall, as this will help you to find and organise your walls later on. You can use the description to add instructions for students - or you can set up messages to help students to navigate the type of wall you have chosen.

Padlets can be anonymous or include a user's name (if given). Consider the benefits of anonymous posting vs the community-building aspect of sharing names. Think about whether your exercise includes personal or sensitive information, and the aims of your exercise.

Padlet messages can be edited to allow comments - this aids discussion on individual messages and could be useful for peer review exercises, discussion on a range of topics, or decision-making exercises.

You can also allow reactions to messages eg. Upvote/downvote, star rating, like/dislike or grade. This can be a simple and quick way to incorporate interaction to your Padlet walls, or introduce exercises such as decision-making, peer review, or sharing opinions.

Start with Creating an Account

Head over to padlet.com to create your own account! Padlet offers a free account or a Pro account. You should have no problems using the free account. With the free account, you have a limit of only 3 Padlet Boards at once; however, you can always archive or delete a board once it is complete to free up an open space.

Next, Make a Padlet

The Padlet homepage is straight forward which is great for busy teachers. No need to spend a long time getting familiar with this new tool, you'll be familiar with it right away!

On this homepage, you will see Folders along the side for you to stay organized, along with a few different colored buttons on the top. With these buttons, you can make your own board, join another user's board, and also check out Padlet Gallery to gather inspiration on the different ways you can use Padlet.

Click Make a Padlet to begin your first board. Next, you can choose a format for displaying the content. With these different options, you can always change up how you and your students are viewing content.
Wall, Grid, and Shelf formats are the best for seeing most content in a structured way.
Then, Format your Padlet

Each Padlet can be customized to fit your needs. Add a title, description, and emoji to make your title stand out.

Every Padlet can be totally different by changing its visual appearance. The wallpaper, color scheme, and font can be changed to suit your subject matter. Choose one of their pre-existing backgrounds, or upload one of your own.

There are also different options for posting on the Padlet. Attribution will display the author's name above each post. Most of the time, I would keep this on, but sometimes it is nice to leave answers anonymous when discussing new, or heavier topics.

Turn on Commenting and Reactions for the posts to leave feedback on your student's posts. Students can also comment on their classmates' posts for a more in-depth discussion. There are plenty of different types of reactions - you can grade posts but assigning the points, or use likes, stars, and votes.

The last customizable option for setting up your Padlet is Content Filtering. Here you can require approval before each post is publicly put on the Padlet. This way you can check over students' contributions before their other classmates view them. In addition, a great feature of Padlet is that it can automatically filter profanity. This extra measure can be taken just in case, to replace any bad words with nice emojis.

Now, Add a Post to Your Padlet

It is very easy and intuitive to add posts to your Padlet. You can do so in four different ways:

1. Double click
2. Drag from desktop
3. Copy from clipboard
4. Click the plus button located in the bottom right corner

Then you can add your content to the Padlet! You can add various forms of content to the board. Not only can you upload files from your desktop, but you can also snap a photo, embedded a website or video, and even draw on a blank canvas. There are at least 6 other different ways to add content to the Padlet. You and your students will not run out of ways to share ideas through Padlet.

Finally, Share the Padlet With Your Students

Now that you have your Padlet completed, its time to add your students in so that they can begin posting too!

At the top of the screen, there is a toolbar where you can click the share button. Here, there will be different options to share the Padlet with your students. Easily share the link with your students through email or Google Classroom.

On this side menu, you can also export the Padlet in various formats, like CSV and PDF, to save the data and share it with others when it's completed.
If you need to change any formatting options on your Padlet, just click Modify on the top ribbon!
