To add something to our Padlet board, simply double click on any open area. Then type your addition. Once you've finished, click somewhere else to post!

At the bottom of posts, you'll notice a few icons. They allow you to add additional features such as videos, images, and attachements. Sometimes though, I find it easier to just post a link right in the post instead

# data[].attributes.body
When you hover over a post, you will notice a green pencil icon in the upper right. Clicking it will allow you to edit/change what's in the post. The red trash can icon will delete the post entirely

# data[].attributes.body
Do your best not to alter/change the posts of other contributors! It's better to let them make the changes.

You can make your "sticky note" wider if you click the green editing pencil icon and move your cursor to the right hand side of the post. Once you do, and arrow will appear that allows you to drag and enlarge your note

It's helpful to keep our posts organized so we can find what we need. Once you've posted, click on the post to drag it to it's proper place

Do you think it will be difficult to have a discussion and not be distracted by Padlet?

# data[].attributes.body
It will definitely take some discipline! I'm hoping Padlet will make our discussion that much better, but if it becomes a distraction we'll ditch it and find another way.

Should I post my learning tool on our Padlet?

# data[].attributes.body
Only when/if it would be helpful to those in the discussion. Don't just put your learning tool on the board. Provide it when it's MOST helpful to others

Socratic Circles are a way to engage in a discussion or debate. They help students to improve their oral argument and listening skills while helping them to build knowledge about a particular topic.

Treat others the way you want to be treated

Don't let Padlet distract you from listening to the views of others

Keep your posts on topic

The second group will be known as the "coaches". The role of coaches is to provide feedback to discussion participants. They will be asked to provide their partner(s) will helpful tips and ways to improve.

# data[].attributes.body
It really depends on the group. Most discussions last about 20-30 minutes. Keep in mind we will need to have two discussions so that each person can participate in the discussion and be a coach.

# data[].attributes.body
Approximately half the class will be starting as members of the discussion group. They will be the ones who speak and share their opinions and questions during the discussion. This image illustrates what the set up looks like...

# data[].attributes.body
Coaches wil observe for the entire discussion. Halfway through, we will have a "halftime". Coaches will then be asked to meet with their partner(s) and provide them with strengths and next steps. We will repeat this process at the conclusion of the discussion.
