So, now you know how it works, you may want some other ways to use Padlet
Padlet can be a great way to have students turn in an exit ticket or a quick top 5 list. I have used Padlet for those purposes a number of times in my classroom. Still need some ideas? Head here to get 5 more classroom uses. If you want 20 more ideas, head here. The two pictures below are screen shots of Padlets I have used in my classroom. What I think is helpful is that there isn't an account and login that students need to create or remember. They just need to access the URL, double-tap on the screen, and write their response.

Need some more convincing that Padlet is a wonderful technology?
Head over to Graphite.org and check out their review or head to Edsurge.com for their review.
I like how you could put a graphic in the middle and have students post their comment around it. It was great to be able to just scroll through the website and I was able to share all my student responses with all my classes right from my LCD projector. I used to do a lot of "take a post-it note, answer this question, and put it on the wall" followed by the "OK, now get up and walk around and read the responses of your classmates." Seemed like a good idea at the time but not always the most effective.
