I was inspired by the MCLI spring 2024 presentation to try to help students connect their life experience to our class. On day one, I asked them to think through how they thought their school, work, and personal experience might connect to our class. My goal was to integrate this more throughout the course, although all I really did was ask them each week to write about a connection without much feedback on my part. This concept could definitely be strengthened!

I used this Padlet to ask former students to share their stories and advice with current students.

Here is my Academic Integrity Policy regarding Sharing Course Content: You are prohibited from sharing any course content without my permission and the content creator's permission (if applicable) unless the content is publicly available online. This means that any course-specific videos, assignments, quizzes, or other content cannot be shared with others or posted online. This policy also covers any written posts, media, or comments shared by students or the instructor in Canvas, Padlet, or Remind. If you really want to Snap something from the course that is not public, ask first!

Most of my Padlets are set to "Secret" which means you need the link to access them. Be warned though that the link is shareable by anyone who has it. A few of my Padlets are Public. If you want to lock it down, you can restrict it to only those you have invited by email or you can require a password. No matter the privacy, no one needs an account to post.

I mostly use the Like (heart) reaction, but Padlet offers Vote (up/down), Stars (out of 5), and Grade (out of 100) as other options. I could see Grade working for a peer review and Vote for decision-making.

You can download in different ways, as an image, CSV, or PDF file. PDF creates a newsletter-like version, although the formatting can be off (example).

I have never used the map version of Padlet so I made this one just for this presentation. Click to add where you have lived (or been or want to visit or anything at all map-related).

This is a shorter version of the Secret Lives Padlet where faculty posted something the rest of us would not know about them and we had to guess which post belonged to which faculty member.

Students use Padlet for Show & Tell, with the instructions revised to be inclusive with the help of colleagues in the CTLE's Peralta Equity Rubric training. Because students are less likely to-revist the Padlet, I comment on what they post through Canvas.

This idea was adapted from Polly Laubach's Live Online Show & Tell activity. Each week students receive two prompts (because it is an 8 week class), each related to the upcoming content that week. Continued on Example 2...

Here's a Padlet of all my Show & Tell prompts and personal posts.

This Padlet was used to share points of confusion about assessment to guide later decision-making by committee leaders.

In the CLT retreat last summer, members posted what they were grateful for, then I color-coded and organized the responses.

This Padlet prompted conference attendees to share ideas that fit into the different categories on the Padlet.

This Padlet was used to collect guesses on how many people would participate in Spring Assessment Week. And I just remembered - I owe Krysten her prize!

This Padlet was used for students to share how things are going in class and how others could help or how they could help others. Unsurprisingly, I suppose, it was mostly used by those doing well.

This was another failed Padlet idea. It encouraged students to ask questions about words that were new to them. Only one student used it but I still liked it!

This Padlet was used to highlight a psychology-related weekly song in my asynchronous class and to ask students for their song suggestions. It didn't really work but I liked the idea!

This song one worked better then (when I remembered) I played one at the start of class.

This Padlet was used to take notes during a summer lunch-and-learn. In the future, I would have used it as a pre-work assignment to prompt thinking before the conversation.

This Padlet was used in a meeting to brainstorm opportunities or concerns. This is a copy that protects the posters' privacy.

This Padlet was used in the first meetings of the academic year to share something great that happened over the summer. This is a copy that protects the posters' privacy.

This Padlet was used to create a flowchart during a small group workshop. It uses the same format as this Padlet with the connecting lines between posts. Additional posts were added as feedback by other members of the workshop.

This Padlet used the Timeline format to organize the brainstorming task participants did during a conference presentation. They started in this Padlet then linked to one of three others to share their ideas. I borrowed this "use a Padlet to link to other Padlets" idea from CG colleague Alisa Beyer.

Credit for this idea goes to Jennifer Lane! Students used this Padlet to summarize their week in 6 words for extra credit. Most also included images and additional descriptions. It was a great way to connect in an asynchronous class.

This Padlet was used during an Assessment presentation to FYRE faculty to provide context about what they knew and didn't know. We ran out of time and didn't get to posting answers to the wrap-up questions.

This Padlet was inspired by a comment at Faculty Convocation. The rules were to post a photo from your camera roll with no explanation and then we guessed who posted which photo and why.

For three summers I have run a "secret lives of GCC" Padlet where we learn more about one another and our lives outside of work. This is a copy that protects the posters' privacy.

This Padlet series was used as a digital thank you card for retiring Chairs last year. Shared with Dean's permission.
