CHRISTINE HO: In the past,
collaboration among students

3
00:00:12.167 --> 00:00:14.083
was limited to group time.

4
00:00:14.083 --> 00:00:17.167
Well, with the exception
of a passed note or two.

5
00:00:17.167 --> 00:00:19.584
But nowadays, the exchange
of ideas isn't limited

6
00:00:19.584 --> 00:00:21.292
to classroom time.

7
00:00:21.292 --> 00:00:23.459
Teamwork can happen
on a whole new level--

8
00:00:23.459 --> 00:00:25.250
a virtual one.

9
00:00:25.250 --> 00:00:28.083
There are so many digital tools
that allow students

10
00:00:28.083 --> 00:00:31.209
to record, organize,
and share their ideas

11
00:00:31.209 --> 00:00:33.876
both inside
and outside of school.

12
00:00:33.876 --> 00:00:36.250
And these tools can be used
in lots of cool ways.

13
00:00:36.250 --> 00:00:38.584
One tool that fosters
this type

14
00:00:38.584 --> 00:00:40.626
of anytime, anywhere
collaboration

15
00:00:40.626 --> 00:00:42.125
is Padlet.

16
00:00:42.125 --> 00:00:43.876
Imagine a digital
sticky note tool

17
00:00:43.876 --> 00:00:45.709
that allows your students

18
00:00:45.709 --> 00:00:49.000
to add text, images, and even
multimedia to a shared board.

19
00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:52.042
Students don't even need a login
to use it,

20
00:00:52.042 --> 00:00:53.375
though you might want to create
an account for yourself

21
00:00:53.375 --> 00:00:54.834
so that you can store

22
00:00:54.834 --> 00:00:56.334
all the boards
you or your students build

23
00:00:56.334 --> 00:00:58.334
in one place.

24
00:00:58.334 --> 00:01:00.209
From your lesson's hook
to the wrap-up,

25
00:01:00.209 --> 00:01:02.584
Padlet can help you host
a virtual discussion group,

26
00:01:02.584 --> 00:01:04.709
pose a question
for an exit ticket,

27
00:01:04.709 --> 00:01:06.876
or collect student work.

28
00:01:06.876 --> 00:01:10.042
By providing a shared space
for group project planning,

29
00:01:10.042 --> 00:01:13.542
students can ask questions,
organize materials,

30
00:01:13.542 --> 00:01:16.000
suggest resources,

31
00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:18.542
and discuss what they've learned
with each other.

32
00:01:18.542 --> 00:01:21.375
You can also add suggestions
and comments to their boards

33
00:01:21.375 --> 00:01:23.250
to help prod their thinking.

34
00:01:23.250 --> 00:01:24.918
This just-in-time way
to collaborate

35
00:01:24.918 --> 00:01:26.959
is so valuable.

36
00:01:26.959 --> 00:01:28.334
All of your students,

37
00:01:28.334 --> 00:01:30.083
from the vocal ones
to the quiet ones,

38
00:01:30.083 --> 00:01:31.501
can have a voice on Padlet

39
00:01:31.501 --> 00:01:33.834
by contributing
to their group's work.

40
00:01:33.834 --> 00:01:35.417
Like what you see?

41
00:01:35.417 --> 00:01:37.000
Check out the innovative ways

42
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:42.584
teachers are using Lino,
TodaysMeet, and Google Docs.

43
00:01:42.584 --> 00:01:45.125
Try out collaboration tools
to enrich your instruction

44
00:01:45.125 --> 00:01:47.501
and further
