Marzano's Element 4: Establishing and Maintaining Classroom Procedures

Having your student involved with the establishment of classroom rules and procedures not only empowers your students to make good choices, but encourages them to invest in their own behavior.  One great way to maximize classroom involvement with all your students when creating rules and procedures with them is the use of online collaborative services.

Padlet is a FREE product that has been out for a rather long time (in the digital world even 5 years is a very long time).  It is still a very effective tool for classroom collaboration and involvement.   Padlet allows you to create an online classroom discussion on one closed discussion platform.  Visually Padlet is similar to a bulletin board where users can post their content and ideas for all of those involved on the board to see and comment to.  And, Padlet works on any device.

Here is a video walk-through of how to use Padlet.
