What do you like best about Padlet?

I work with kids with dyslexia, dyscalculia, Autism, and ADHD. Organisation of information is crucial to my kids and their families or caregivers. And Padlet help them to organise information on a single canvas that my students can access. And when all of my intention classes turned online, I really made use of Padlet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

The pricing plan. Only 3 Padlet are allowed in the free plan. if you need to create the 4th one one needs to get rid of one of the 3 Padlets at hand. For an educator, loosing a Padlet is disastrous. Not all educators, afford the price plan. If their schools are not funding them they will not be able to afford Palet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Padlet:

I use Padlet mainly for Reading Comprehension exercises with my secondary students. Answers can be given in any form - written, audio/video clip - which help my kids with SpLD to give their answers precisely with worrying much about writing down the answers. And during covid 19 Padlet is so useful as it helped me a lot on online real-time collaboration with my kids. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

- educators and students are more interconnected during the learning process.

- synchronous learning: live question and answer, written expression-brainstorm on a topic, gather student written work and answers to questions.

- Asynchronous learning: a repository for learning materials.

What I like is that an educator could easily implement UDL (Universal Design for Learning) guidelines easily because Pedlet allows multiple ways or presenting, interacting, and expressing information for both teachers and students. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Julia Carnes of Padlet

Hi Mohamed! Thank you for leaving a review. It's true that the free plan only allows 3 padlets, but instead of deleting old padlets, you could try archiving them instead. That way, you can keep your old padlets and use them in the future by removing them from the archive.

I am glad to hear that Padlet is helping you organize and present information to your students. Since you left this review, we've added even more organization and presentation features. For example, we have added sections to padlets, which means you can group your posts. We've also added Padlet Slideshow, which lets you turn a padlet into a presentation in one click. We hope you enjoy these features. Thank you again for using Padlet!

What do you like best about Padlet?

As a high school and college teacher, I've found that Padlet is an indispensable tool. I love that it is such a customizable space-- I can use it for a huge variety of lessons-- students post comments and respond to each other, quote from literature with explanations, and create individual blogs-- the applications are only limited to my imagination, really. I even use it for my own records to track student work on projects and make important reminders so I can check in with them in a timely way. I have created a Padlet with curriculum resources for my team so that everything for the year is at their fingertips. I love that Padlet is always bringing new aspects of the platform to us, especially the templates, which really elevated Padlet in my mind. The ease of implementation is wonderful-- students and even colleagues with limited tech abilities can easily pick up the basics and begin with Padlet right away. It has never glitched, locked me out, or altered my content. Padlet is the #1 tool I recommend. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I use Padlet using an institutional license from the college where I teach, so I have unlimited Padlets. The high school where I also teach does not have an institutional license. When I show colleagues at the college all of the wonders of Padlet, they are excited and usually start using it right away. When I do the same at the high school, they try it but run out of Padlets very quickly since they are only allowed 3. I feel like free users should have at least 5 Padlets available to them since that is the number of classes they teach. With only 3, teachers are unable to use Padlet with all of their classes and they tend to stop trying it out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Padlet solves the issue of students not wanting to participate in class discussion or share their work. They are fine with posting their ideas and writing on Padlet for the class to see, so this aspect benefits me by generating more commentary among students and allows me to step back as the only collaborator on their work.

What do you like best about Padlet?

What I find incredible about Padlet is the opportunities it provides students to write down their thoughts and opinions in a non-threatening space. My students love this online tool because they feel comfortable to express themselves without having to share aloud. They love commenting on their peers' posted comments in real time. They especially love the 'like' feature! It's also super easy to use on an Ipad for both students and teachers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

Nothing at this time. I think Padlet works well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's solving how students express themselves. Less intimidating than speaking aloud in front of the class. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

First, I love the aesthetic. The minimalist design of the software is friendly to students, and it can be modified to create a beautiful environment.

Additionally, I like the new poll feature. I use it to assess my students MCQ skills in real-time, and it's also helpful for students to see which responses are giving them the most difficulty.

Finally, I love the ability for students to see each others' work. They learn from strong models, and this software makes it easy for students to do so. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

I dislike that more filters don't exist. I'd like to be able to filter out notes with images, for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Padlet helps me solve the problem of gathing more data for formative assessment in the classroom. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Padlet?

I'm a visual learner, so I find Padlet very helpful for laying out my ideas visually. It's easy to move things around and connect ideas to each other and see what fits and what doesn't fit. It's making it super easy for me to see how each of my modules and lessons will work together. Love it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Padlet?

It took me a little while to figure out how to use it, but I think that's normal for any software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I like brainstorming, but when I try to lay things out in word processing software, I can't easily visualize my goals and objectives. Padlet makes it really easy for me to lay things out and to storyboard my ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Padlet makes collaboration easy. I like how you can create a unique link to your customized Padlet, so teammates can add comments, pictures, share links, and more. I also like that you can save the Padlet as a PDF after the meeting and share with staff and others who may not have had the opportunity to join the live meeting.
