For younger classes, use it as a portfolio to share with parents. Snap pictures of student work and share them.

Richard Byrne says you can use it almost as a blog.

Have a class Padlet and put the links to everything else in it. Set the student web browsers to start with that page. If you set it to flow, the work is already at the top. Students will know quickly what they are doing that day.

Have kids sort pictures on Padlet to classify them (and use the Interactive White Board (IWB)).1

Use it as a class backchannel and have discussions on it.

Have students work a problem, and snap a picture of how they worked it.

The faster, the better.

Padlet I think is a useful tool in realizing the power of digital media and all its purported boons as opposed to its ancient counterpart. Highly integral to this digital instrument is a high-speed Internet connection. Accessing big data in order to achieve high-level of interaction among users is vital in sustaining interest, engagement, inquiry, and eventually, learning. Students' full immersion to Padlet, pregnant with a wealth of information which they can choose and reconstruct for various purposes, with the aid of fast and reliable connection leads to autonomy.

As educators, regardless of grade level or content area, we have always wanted to take our students on the journey so that they might understand something new, deeply. The film strip or pen pals were such a clumsy hierarchical way of doing this...but at one time it was the best we had.  Now we can decentralize this journey with interactive media and instant communication...and yet people still pen pals.

I am now working on a project introducing pads and teachers-students-parents interaction platforms into primary school classrooms in Beijing.  Phase I has finished and most teachers and students in our volunteer classrooms have gotten quite familiar with their devices as well as the platforms. However, what I find very interesting is that the traditional classroom layout has become more and more of an obstruction to the new and integrated teaching and learning practices. When teachers try to divide students into several groups based on their performance, the teacher-centered layout with rows of students can physically limit students' movement. While I was still a student teacher back at graduate school, using a different classroom layout to change the teacher-centered teaching model was something I always wanted to achieve. Now I see that, just like what we just read in the New Culture of Learning book, the transformation of learning will finally lead to changes in the physical space. And the changes in the physical space will in turn support the transformation of learning.

In the world that evolves so rapidly everything is possible. Collaboration between all stakeholders are essential for the changes to happened. Educators, entrepreneurs, parents, and youth can come together to create new models of learning that is centered on student’s understanding education. The new era is looking for different skills.  Project XQ is an example; redesigning high schools across the country , using the premises the intelligence is not fixed, brain plasticity. Formal education is not equal to success anymore. Look at our new leaders in technology! When innovation and divergent thinking is applied, models of learning can be created and tailored to individual and cultural communities, global differentiation. Using the web, and it's potential for open communication, sharing and community, education can be organic dissipate in new forms such as EDX, code.org and others.  Just to think about the possibilities is overwhelming. Classrooms are changing and depending where you are in the globe you can have and experience different models and theories, behaviorism, cognitivism, constructivism, and connectivism, or combinations.  Reminds me of the book “Outlier” by Malcolm Gladwell, like Glasdwell’s examples of how cultural differences play a large part in perceived intelligence and rational decision making, the only difference is we became a global community. In this global community all intelligences fit in and everyone has the opportunity to thrive and succeed.

In our reading the elements that make up our 'new culture of learning' interested me. Specifically the following explanation, "The first [element] is a massive information network that provides almost unlimited access and resources to learn about anything. The second is a bounded and structured
environment that allows for unlimited agency to build and experiment with things within those boundaries."

The second part is interesting; I linked my post to the classroom design post because I believe it speak to the importance of re-imagining and creating effective classroom design within these bounded environments. This can be seen through the surge of makerspaces, learning commons and companies like Steelcase Education.

However, I'd argue the bounded lines of the classroom are beginning to blur. Take FreshGrade for example. A portfolio building & learning management tool. Tools such as this are being implemented into the classrooms where progress is documented, shared with parents and feedback can be instantaneously given. This allows for retooling of the learning in the classroom and also allows parents and their children to reflect on a days learning outside of the classroom. Often times they are happening simultaneously. That's why I think of educational technologies as blurring the bounded lines of where and how students learn.
