Padlet

Padlet works like a sheet of paper to put text, images, videos, documents anywhere, from any device such as pcs, tablets, and phones, with anyone.

Padlet could be used for teaching, brainstorming, note-taking, discussions, making a list, instant feedback, Q & A and more. Padlet already has over 5 millions walls.

I have used Padlet in the Cohere conference presentation, both in the PowerPoint and in the presentation as the back channel.

Check out how we used Padlet in the Cohere presentation.

Also check out how one workshop in Teaching Professor Technology Conference used Padlet for feedback

Now here is a brand new wall for us to brainstorming what e-learning technologies you use in your teaching and learning

Open Classroom —- Meet Bradly Kilb

I had great honor to observe Bradly Kilb’s lesson this morning. He is teaching PHED 349 – Activities in Alternative Environments and he is fantastic.

He used his first half-an-hour class time to summarize the learning last time and introduced new techniques, followed by an-hour experiential learning in the Kinesiology pool.

His lecture was so engaging, interesting and fun. I did not feel bored at all even with my short attention span.

His rich experience of canoeing and coaching just lightened things up. I followed the class to the pool and really enjoy watch him coach his students to apply new skills with encouragement and humor. He is so approachable and kind that I want to take his class too.

Great learning experience!
