Padlet

Padlets are online visual collaborative tools that allow participants to interact by posting text, links, images, videos, and more. Montclair State has acquired a site license that allows faculty and staff the ability to create an unlimited number of Padlets. Padlet is made up of three tools:

  • Padlet Board – an online collaborative bulletin board that allows participants to organize, collect and share ideas
  • Padlet Sandbox – a collaborative digital whiteboard with tools for drawing, writing, and adding media
  • Padlet TA – a collection of AI-powered tools designed to assist teachers in content creation and classroom management

Use the Padlet Account Request Form to request a Teacher account associated with your Montclair State University NetID for Padlet. After your Padlet account request is received and approved, go to padlet.com/montclair, then log in with your Montclair Google Account (NetID and associated password).
