Padlet: licensed version now available for staff and students
The University of Melbourne has made a Padlet Backpack license available to staff, which allows for unlimited padlet wall creation and posts, compared to the free (Basic) version which only supports creating 3 padlet walls. The only restriction to our license is a 250MB file upload limit per individual post, with unlimited posts.
Padlet is a web-based tool for virtual brainstorming, collation and collaboration, both real-time and asynchronously, without the need to be co-located in the same physical space. It enables online activities equivalent to those done in a physical setting, such as adding post-it notes to a whiteboard, brainstorming, mind mapping, creating visual boards, presentations and more.
Teaching staff who don’t have a UniMelb Padlet account yet can get theirs set up using the Microsoft Single Sign On login option on unimelb.padlet.org
