3. Go to padlet and create a wall to demonstrate your problem-solving process and selection.
Padlet is a free resource to create a wall to showcase your research and selection. When you are on a Padlet wall, it is like a blank piece of paper for your computer. You can post text, add multimedia, edit, and share your wall posts. There is also a function to moderate posts if more than one person accesses your wall. On your wall include at least six textboxes to introduce yourself and demonstrate how you used each step in reflective thinking.
4. When you have completed your wall, submit your wall URL to the instructor.
