Wakelet is a digital collector site where you can store your information, websites, documents, photos or media collection related to a topic all in one place. The website is free to use, has a simple interface, and the collection it creates can be edited collaboratively.
Once we have set the framework and given the topic, we can share it with students for editing.
- The number of collections that can be created for free is unlimited
- Simple interface
- Collaboratively editable
This kind of digital collection can be useful for project work. As teachers we can also use it to organise our own collections. The interface can be connected to our virtual classrooms created in Google Classroom or Microsoft Teams, and we can import our learning groups.
If we offer our students the opportunity to create a student portfolio, we should be aware of the fact that the site offers the possibility to upload pictures, own work, and to view the linked websites in a compressed format. It provides an aesthetic and organised way for students to create their portfolio collection.
