What is the difference between Canvas Discussion board and Padlet?

unknown

I am doing some analysis pertaining to Canvas DB Vs Padlet and trying to figure out if it is worth going ahead with another tool just for ease of use or there are some strong points setting Padlet apart from Canvas DB. Anyone who has worked on this or can share any information would be of great help.

Thanks in advance!

Hi there, @RuthSequeira ...

Here are a couple video tutorials on Canvas discussion boards:

• Discussions Overview (Instructors)
• Discussions Overview (Students)

This is a page that I found for Padlet: Padlet Features.

It looks like Padlet can be added as an external tool to Canvas courses using the instructions found on this webpage: How to add Padlet to Canvas LMS using LTI 1.3? - Padlet Knowledge Base & Support.

Does this information help at all for your needs?
