PADLET-Online Board-Introduction

  • Padlet  

    The use:

    We use Padlet to create an online board. It is like a virtual board that consists of many sticky notes. It can be used for e.g. introducing students/ teachers, preparing a plan of a project, organising ideas, collecting information etc. It’s very simple, just try :)

     

    In our project we will use Padlet for introducing ourselves and presenting tasks.

     

    If you want to add info to an already prepared board or just watch it, there is no need to register.

     

    Follow these steps:

    1. Click the link with an already created padlet.(In our project this link is for students: https://padlet.com/kamilathomas/ckvw19ly548k
      and this link is for teachers: https://padlet.com/kamilathomas/5s1wz0bka37q)

    2. Click twice on an empty space and a window will appear.

    3. Write your name, surname and country, then something about yourself.

    4. Upload a crazy photo, so click on the icon below and browse the photo from your computer.

    1. Click any empty space and it's done. Your changes are saved. Easy, isn't it?

    2. Only you, can edit the created window. Just click on the window on the right top icon "PEN". If you want to delete it just click the icon "BIN".
