I know many educators that have used Padlet in the past and have had a lot of success. Padlet is colorful and engaging for students and that appealing characteristic is what captured my attention.
As of this date, users can only create three padlets for free. Recent changes for Padlet users are there is no more unlimited usage, hence there is a fee if you want to create more than three.
Padlet Backpack was developed for educators and currently there is a 30 day free trial offer that I am testing out. The best part of Padlet for our use is that it helps our patrons visualize the information, which catches their attention to our resources. I would like this Padlet to replace the boring, ho-hum links on our Follett Destiny webpage.
Every school that has Follett Destiny LMS has the same, dull landing page. Using Padlet to spice things up may be part of the solution for improvement.
