How do I create a Padlet account?

For Padlet's School platform, you will need to create a Tufts Padlet account. This will allow you to login to Padlet via SAML (Dual Factor Authentication).

Using the browser of your choice, enter tufts.padlet.org in to the URL box.

Click Continue with SAML

Log in with your Tufts User ID (UTLN) and Password

This is the Dashboard of Padlet - Select +Make to start a new padlet

Click Blank board to open a blank padlet

From the +Make a padlet option, you can choose to start a blank padlet or blank Sandbox or choose from a template.

After you have created the padlet you plan to use you can add the padlet as an assignment within Canvas for your students to collaborate on.

NOTE: Please note that if you already have a padlet account, creating a Tufts Padlet account will create a second account.

You can import previously created Padlets. This will transfer the original Padlet but will NOT transfer over any comments or contributions not created by you.
