Padlet
Hello .My topic for today is the avantages and disavantages of using padlet in classrooms.But first what is padlet ?Padlet formerly known as a Wallwisher is a free application that can be used to display information for any topic .You can add videos , images ,links ,record and share your voice ,as well as add documents.
In theory ,digital learning appears to be something extremely beneficial to all schools and students .But we are all aware that digital learning has both it good and bad sides.Among
good sides I can mention as follows :
1-Engagement :improved students motivation from engaging content and game based stategies.
2-Location :anywhere anytime learning creates a new world of opportunity.
3-Ownership:students choosing what to learn and how to demostrate their learning.
4-Time :extending the learning day and year ; allowing students to learn what they learn best .
As I mentioned before there are also a number of disavantages using padlet ,such as :
1-Security and cheating:technology will solve some problems but introduce other challenges
2-Preparation and development :learning new tools will be the easy part , learning new roles will be more challenging particularly as school models proliferate.
3-Software and hardware constantly change their versions which makes it tough for schools to stay current .
4-The risk of layering technology on top of how we've always done school with little benifit.
But despite disadvantages technology in education can be a life-changer.It has the power to bring textbooks in life.
Hi~, It was nice someone mentioned disadvantages for once as we always tend to see only the one side of the story. It was helpful reading this.
