Padlet
Business owner: Centre for Learning & Teaching
Padlet is an online canvas designed to collaboratively share and organise small posts. Padlets can be beautiful spaces used to collect, organise, and present anything, easily shared for collaboration, open to all or made private to a given group of participants. You can use them in courses, encouraging synchronous or asynchronous interaction in whole class discussions and in group work. ANU has an Enterprise (Backpack) licence for use in Learning and Teaching.
Creating your Padlet Account
All ANU students and staff can create a Padlet account as follows:
- visit https://anu.padlet.org
- click Continue with SAML
- use your ANU UniID and password.
Using this licence you can create an unlimited number of Padlets, and invite others to participate in these Padlets. Other participants can be invited individually using their ANU email address, or you can generate a link or QR code to send to a whole group of people, e.g. a class, all within ANU.
The alternative to using this ANU login is to create a personal account at padlet.com. These accounts are limited to a total of three Padlets.
Note: if you leave ANU, or do not use your ANU Padlet account for over 18 months, it will be disabled. To keep your Padlets when you leave, you will need to migrate them to another Padlet account.
Do you already have a padlet account?
Follow these instructions to migrate your existing personal padlets into your ANU account. This is for padlets you have at padlet.com, not padlet.org.
If you have an existing Padlet Backpack account, i.e. the URL is something.padlet.org, not padlet.com, please contact the ANU IT ServiceDesk to migrate existing Padlets, as this will require assistance from Padlet.
