Abstract

Many digital platforms provide rich interactions between teachers and students, as well as, collaboration among students. The use of Mentimeter and Padlet become one of the examples, especially in English teacher education classes. Both are relevant since it is believed to develop students’ digital literacy while absorbing pedagogical materials (Nufus & Mahmud, 2024). When teachers apply both, the students learn how to create a class with more participatory, communicative and responsive interactions. It will shape their professional readiness for their future classes, namely engaging themselves with innovative material designs. Mentimeter encourages direct participation in real-time activities even when students tend to be passive, by applying features such as word clouds, quiz and polls. Meanwhile, Padlet provides collaborative boards in which demand students to share ideas, materials, reflections, pictures etc, by supporting multimodal interesting formats.
