Microsoft Whiteboard allows you to make digital use of a whiteboard. You can do this both during and outside of a Microsoft Teams meeting. You can prepare your whiteboard for use. During a Teams meeting you can easily share a whiteboard via Share screen.

With this tool, as a teacher, I can:

  • collaborate with students on a digital whiteboard by typing, sticking post-it’s, using shapes and posting responses;
  • choose when students can or cannot edit the whiteboard;
  • automatically save whiteboards online.
