Throughout this session, I have gotten new knowledge on how teachers can use Wakelet in building their profiles. Why is Wakelet suitable for building teachers' profiles? The collection and space functions.
As for collections, we can upload and link different materials in it. The materials can be in videos, PDF files, game links and even folder from Drive. Therefore, we can use the collection function in various ways. As educators, we always have to manage a lot of documents. Hence, Wakelet is one of the best choices of all. Why do I say so? There are a few ways that educators can use Wakelet in building professional profiles.
1. Use Wakelet to collaborate - We can use Wakelet to invite pupils to collaborate in real-time. Pupils can enter the Wakelet collection / Wakelet space using invitation code or link. They can even enter without an existing account!
2. Use Wakelet to showcase pupils' work - As lessons are going online, we can use Wakelet to collect pupils' work, such as project-based learning or Arts. Afterwards, we can move the collections from space to space. In the end of the year, we can have a virtual gallery walk for the parents and pupils. I'm sure that they would be very excited to see their work!
3. Use Wakelet to collect reading materials - When we found an interesting articles or stories, we can always create an e-library for ourselves or for the pupils. We can organise articles, journals and stories in using different collection and gathered all in the same space. Both teachers and pupils can free to access all the reading materials in the different collections.
Above all three are what I think about hoe Wakelet suits primary school pupils as they can't have an account in Wakelet due to the terms and conditions. Drop me an e-mail if you want to know more about Wakelet! Let's ride on the Wakelet wave!
