About Padlet

Dostoevsky said that beauty will save the world. Padlet is a beautiful way to organize and present your team’s files, assets, and ideas. Instead of mind-numbingly boring documents from the 80s or mostly useless folders from the 90s, create visual boards (padlets) that are delightful to look at and fun to contribute to. Over 30 million people every month actively use Padlet around the world. Here are some of the ways they use it: -Provide feedback on files -Manage instructional videos -Store marketing assets visually -Track real-estate listings on a map -Build slideshows -Create meeting schedules -Brainstorm on a shared surface -And more Dostoevsky would have loved Padlet.

Helpful Starting Point for Discussions

Overall, even though padlet is simplistic in design and nature it is a helpful and quick tool, especially in the classroom. Users are able to quickly share their ideas and is therefore a perfect starting point for conversations, seminars, or surveys.

PROS

Padlet is a simple way for groups of people to share ideas, brainstorm, and start conversations. In the classroom setting I have used it many times for students to anonymously project ideas on the screen. This easy to access software can help students to get out of their shells and contribute to a conversation/seminar in ways that they otherwise wouldn't have.

CONS

Padlet's features are functional and easy to use, however they are at times simplistic and lack the more refined features that would be helpful. It feels like an online version of having individuals place stickynotes on a corkboard. It can also be difficult to vet inappropriate submissions if you are not vigilant.

Vendor Response

Hi David! Thank you for leaving this review. I'm glad that Padlet is a helpful tool for your classroom discussions. It's awesome that all students are able to contribute to the conversation through Padlet. When it comes to inappropriate submissions, we do have some features in place, like require approval, to help combat this issue. We are also working on more automated ways to handle these types of submissions. Stay tuned for more. In the meantime, I'd be curious to learn more about the refined features you're looking for. Could you send us a message with more details? https://padlet.com/contact-us Thanks again for using Padlet!

Dread Rubric Writing No More

I work with pre-service teachers and Padlet is a wonderful way for them to experience technology they can use in the classroom. The new AI features are amazing and I am still working with refining my search terms. Students who are leery of technology have an easy time using Padlet and that is so helpful in easing them into other uses.

PROS

I absolutely love the new rubric creation! This is a task I dreaded and now actually look forward to creating rubrics. Padlet takes my directions and generates a rubric to my specifications. I can then make any minor tweaks necessary and boom -my job is done.

CONS

Honestly, what I like least is my inability to remember how to log in to our school site without having to open a pre-existing Padlet. That's all on me!

Vendor Response

Thank you so much for your enthusiastic review! It’s fantastic to hear that the new rubric creation feature has transformed a task you once dreaded into something you now look forward to. We're thrilled that Padlet is making your job easier and helping pre-service teachers become more comfortable with technology in the classroom.
