Padlet (iPad friendly website) is a virtual wall that allows people to express their thoughts on a common topic easily. It works like online sticky notes where people can put any content (e.g. images, videos, documents, text) anywhere on the page, together with anyone, from any device. (Yes, you can moderate these posts!) Students do not even need to log in to add things to your Padlet.
