Teaching and Learning Workshop: Learning Padlet and Mentimeter

 

 

Attended this workshop today to learn the usage of Padlet and Mentimeter. The sharing was by Dr Nazmona who is the Information Systems group leader for FREE and Ts. Dr Suraya who is the Information Systems Director at Azman Hashim International Business School.

Padlet serves as a platform enables interactivity among students and instructors. Students may post notes, videos, images on the padlet created by the instructor. The figure below shows and example of a Padlet which I obtained from other website.

Instructors will be able to provide grades, star or points for the padlet posted by students.

A bonus for UTM lecturers, this can be embedded in UTM E-Learning and can be counted as one of the blended learning components and to be included in TES.

Mentimeter which was shared by Dr Suraya enables intructors to create for example online quizzes and word cloud. This is an alternative to the well known tool Kahoot! This is an example of a simple quiz created during the session:

Thanks to Dr Grace, AHIBS FREE Coordinator for organizing such fun learning session. And of course, many thanks to Dr Suraya and Dr Nazmona for the gifts! We had fun!
