Yea or Nay?

This is my first exposure to Padlet, and I truly like the tool. Within minutes of creating an account, I was curating resources and publishing to my board. It is intuitive and allows for the incorporation of multiple media sources. I give the program an enthusiastic two thumbs up, five stars, would recommend!

Easy? You bet!

I found Padlet incredibly easy to use even with no previous experience. I think students of all ages, from children to adult learners, could use Padlet with ease as it is user friendly and super easy to navigate, edit, change, and add content to.

Practical Application

I see the potential to use Padlet in several capacities. One, we generate a lot of external interests in our Training Center's employment of Modernized Ready Learning initiatives. Padlet would be an easy to create way to organize and publicize our efforts for external stakeholders up the chain of command. Additionally, several of our advanced trainer qualifications like Master Training Specialist require capstone projects. Padlet would be an awesome way to present these before the review board.

The free version offers full functionality but with restricted features like less video recordings and file size. It's also limited to 3 padlets per user. For one off projects, this is a fine option. Two other price points are offered with both giving discounts for annual subscriptions. The paid versions would be appropriate for heavy users of the platform or for projects that require highly leveraged media capacity like video recordings and file size.
