What do you like best about Padlet?

I love how it is integrated with Google Drive. I love all of the options available to post with- from uploading, to searching images and GIFs. I am hopeful that this will be easy for my students to use. I think I am going to like Padlet MORE than Flipgrid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

Not sure yet. So far so good. I will know more after my students begin to use it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am using it to replace FlipGrid that is now going away. But, now I can see how Padlet could be used other than audition videos. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love every features of Padlet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

• Communication barriers: Padlet facilitates effective communication by providing a central platform where team members can share ideas, updates, and feedback in real-time, regardless of their location or time zone. This helps break down communication silos and ensures that everyone is on the same page.

• Information overload: Padlet helps organize and structure information by allowing users to create multiple boards and categorize content using tags and filters. This makes it easier for users to find the information they need quickly and efficiently, reducing the risk of information overload.

• Lack of engagement: Padlet promotes active participation and engagement by providing interactive features such as commenting, liking, and voting. This helps foster a sense of community and encourages users to contribute their ideas and perspectives.

• Limited collaboration: Padlet enables seamless collaboration by allowing multiple users to work on the same Padlet simultaneously. This eliminates the need for separate documents or emails, streamlining the collaboration process and reducing the risk of version control issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

I LOVE Padlet! I teach at a junior college and was looking for a way for students to share images/short writing and discuss those things.

It is harder than you might think to find a way to do this. Sure, you can set up a website for everyone to post things on, but one confused person can also delete everything! Also, there is no accountability--since anyone can post without their name being automatically attached to their contribution. Another option is a clunky "Forum" on our college intranet, which solves the accountability issue, but you have to click on links to view uploaded images and the chat does not automatically update. It also only exists as one long thread.

Padlet does everything I need and more! It solves the problems listed above. It is pretty and has a friendly vibe. It has a baked in AI image generator called "I Can't Draw" with no limit on the number of prompts. Students can create a personal Padlet to showcase their findings and then post a link to it on our main class page.

One of the best things about Padlet is it lets me look at everyone's contributions to evaluate their participation in various activites (you just use the search function and everything that person has posted appears).

Long live Padlet! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I like pretty much everything about it. I guess one downside is that you are limited to a certain number of Padlets (depending on which package you have) and I feel a little sad when the semester ends and I have to delete all the good work and funny comments :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being able to post images and discuss them collaboratively and keep a record of this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing that I don't like is that it is payable, so we cannot use the different features and benefit from padlet to the maximum. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

I love how easy it is to create a Padlet. Our organisation is using it regularly now in many ways. It's super easy to use. Literally a few clicks of a button and you have something live which students can use staright away. It is also really simple for our students to add to. Click the plus button and you're off. Our students all know how to use and naviagte a Padlet now. I also love that we can use it for asynchronous learning: students can add to the Padlets in our course at any time and rad what others have said. Having said that, it is also great for our live online learning space. Students can collborate in real time. I also like how many ways there are for students to collaborate: gifs, text, sound, video, images, maps, polls. SO good. So varied. Loving the look of the new Sandbox too. this is something we have been hoping for for a while, especially the different cards: this will be really helpful for our online lesson space. I have reached out a number of times and asked for assistance and the team have been quick and super professional in their responses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

We have not liked that we needed multiple Padlets for different tasks, but this will be sorted by Sandbox. Sometimes it's tricky for students to see the plus sign to add in once it's been embedded into our LMS. However, this is mior. I think they can all naviagte it now. I've had a few issues converting things to PDFs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

We ue Moodle to present out online teaching materials. Padlet is providing us with uch needed and sought after collabortaion space which we did not really have before. Capturing and - importantly - keeping the answers which have been typed in unlike H5P essay questions for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

They make it much easier to create and maintain links to multiple resources, FAQs, and cohort maps. I can share the resources across courses (which is a much more efficient use of my time than duplication resources) and accross different courses, so I can share them with my colleagues.

They are so easy to set up and require ZERO website design skills.

They are colorful, aesthetically pleasing and support loads of resource types.

Sometimes our Uni websites are very cumbersome and information is hard to find. I use course FAQs to give people the info they need and cannot find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I have not managed to work out how to share editing rights with other padlet users, without giving everyone editing rights.

I wish thaat the dashboard showed all of my padlets rather than favourite or recents. Some I created ages ago but still update. I always have to "think" about where I will find them Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

I can create a suite of resource management padlets and point to them from several courses (and share with colleagues) to reduce duplication.

I can create cohort maps (which I love) and FAQ pages that sit outside univeristy webpapges (so people can access it BEFORE they are enrolled, which is when they need to know about a course often). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Atticus From Padlet of Padlet

What do you like best about Padlet?

Padlet provides so many opportunities for students to engage with authentic problem-solving, critical thinking skills, and visual collaboration. Because the students see their work product appear instantaneously, they are ready to jump in with enthusiasm. Often the learning activities and experiences bring along laughter and excitement; joy to a teachers' ears.

As a teacher, I really like how I can re-make Padlets for different classes. There are so many features available to me such as the background, the ease and ability to copy a link to each Google Classroom, the visual appeal for each Padlet, and how easy it is for me to moderate the Padlets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

As a middle school teacher, a student could create post "something" for shock value. I would rather not have to moderate posts. It is not really an issue about Padlet; more about trust with students. I appreciate how Padlet provides controls for moderation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Padlet solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am an educator and i use it as an engagement activity with students in the classroom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
