App of the Week

Padlet

Is a great tool for collaborating, its basically a virtual wall that allows people (students) to express their thoughts on a common topic.

Teachers can use this tool in myriad of ways, for instance to pose open-ended questions to students, brainstorming, reflective purposes and more.....

It works like an online bulletin board where content (e.g. images, videos, documents, text) can be put up on the page, by anyone who has been given access to the page.

If you want to know how to use it refer to the YouTube tutorial below.

An example of how Padlet is being used at GCS can be found in the PYP page.
