Students at GSA can make as many Padlets as they wish. Padlets are digital notice boards where you can post images, text, PDFs, videos and other files. Your padlet can be private, or shared with your tutors or other students. It can be used as a digital exhibition space.

Each post you make can be up to 250 MB in size. There are unlimited posts per Padlet allowed.
