Face-to-Face Workshops: Padlet & Tellagami

I really enjoyed attending these, they're great and free! I have discovered so many useful apps that I can use in the classroom, and these apps are applicable to not only early education, but secondary, as well, which is really nice. I am not too creative myself, but Mrs. Beck provided many ideas and resources for each app. I appreciate that the College of Education provides these for students, I will definitely be attending these outside of this activity. 

I will most likely be using Padlet in my classrooms. I actually have a project for a scholarship that I will be using Padlet for. It is a great site to use as a dashboard for a class, a home base where students can check in and look at things that I post/recommend/assignments. 

I will probably not irse tellagami. It is a cool idea, but it takes several apps to get a recording of your voice and the character that is longer than 30 seconds. It is also a bit more geared for younger children. It could be useful with foreign language, however. If students didn't know how to pronounce something, I could make a background with the word and record the character pronouncing it and using it in an example.
