Procedure

1. To set up your Padlet, use the instructions on the Padlet Tech Tool Card. 

2. Once your Padlet is ready for use, instruct your learners to create a post by selecting the “+” icon at the bottom right corner of the screen.

3. Then, direct them to select the “+12” button on the right side of the post box. This will show all options for attachment types. 

4. Learners should select the “Video recorder” option. This will open a window for learners to record a video of themselves, up to two minutes long.

   Instruct learners to select the correct camera and microphone options at the bottom of the window.  

5. Direct learners to select the camera icon at the bottom of the window when they are ready to record. The recording will begin immediately. 

6. Learners may pause, stop, watch back, discard, and re-record their video until they are satisfied with it. 

7. When their video is ready, ask learners to select the “Playback and save” button in the top right corner of the window. Then, select “Save” again.

8. Once the video has been added to their post, learners may complete their post by adding a “Subject” as well as any additional text needed to the caption before posting.

9. When the post is ready, instruct learners to select the “Publish” button, which will add the post to the Padlet bulletin board.
