Internet Evolution in Education

While researching the evolving Internet stages, I used the program Padlet. Padlet helps the user organize their information all in one place. Padlet offers a variety of templets, which are all customizable. The user is able to upload videos, images, audio and chat with other users. Creating a Padlet was fun and easy to use, however the free version does not come with a tutorial of the site. This took a little time when customizing and making it my own. While I was gathering information about each Internet version, I realized that when using Padlet, the user can click anywhere on the project and search Google for images, video, audio, GIFs, and content without changing tabs. The user can simply click on an image, and it is embedded in your project. The user is able to find what they need in less time, without switching screens back and forth. Padlet also allows for the creator to share their board, which can be used as a discussion board in a classroom setting. Each student is able to create their own title and response. Other ways students and teachers can use Padlet include creating graphic organizers, timelines, organize lesson plans, and matching images to real life descriptions. Below, I provided my project and the link in using Padlet. I also found a great tutorial that describes how to use the program and provides great examples in the classroom.
