An inquiry and a collaboration space

USINg padlet to set up collaboration spaces built with learners

So I'm back in Padlet - I know it pops up a lot but it is such an effective tool for collaboration!  This time I started with an inquiry question and rather than dictating to the Visual Communication Design students what I wanted them to know, I allowed them to build with me a bank of video, image and written resources around the inquiry question. Not only were they able to showcase their understanding they were empowered to explore ideas and topics relevant to them and to think about what their peers found also.
