Introduction

Known as PADLET .This imaginative website certainly makes the teaching and learning in English language more simpler.This technology is suitable for all teachers and students at all level .This website brings in the idea of replacing the white board into a magical wall which allows people to express their thoughts on a common topic easily.The 'wall' as in the 'web page' here represents the whiteboard where students and teachers post their comments about an issue.

Instructions

I really hope this can help teachers and students in using this website.

A Sample Wall!
The advantages gained from this website are:
  1. encourages personal note taking
  2. instigates discussions in classroom about a topic
  3. creates an interactive learning environment
  4. a modern way of teaching
  5. simplifies feedback collections about an issue
  6. allows students to participate in a collaborative conversation
  7. to brainstorm ideas about a topic
  8. allows students to access ideas and discussions after class lessons
  9. allows students to summarise their understanding about a lesson in a few words and share it to class
  10. enable teachers to make their input more participatory rather than passive

The disadvantage of using this website is:
  1. It requires internet connection and not all schools have this facility.

Recommendation

Teachers can use this amazing 'wall' as their whiteboard to teach and elicit students answers as well create a discussion atmosphere while teaching.
