Fun with Jamboard
Another great technology tool in the Google Workspace for Education toolbox is Jamboard. According to the TeachThought website, "Jamboard is a cloud-based app that enables visual collaboration between users in real-time [via] ... a shared ‘whiteboard’ on each user’s individual screen." Using Jamboard, instructors can:
- Model skills like math, art, note-taking, and other competencies whose mastery can be encouraged through modeling for students
- Collaborate on projects in project-based learning–either between the teacher and students or between students
- Brainstorm ideas collaboratively–for writing, projects, and more
- Concept-map problems and solutions while using inquiry-based learning
- Use in a flipped classroom setting to allow peer groups to collaborate in real-time in class or at home
- Use during remote teaching and learning as an online ‘chalk board’ to lead activities, check for understanding, and more
Jamboards can be found and modified through one's PLN or created from scratch. Here are just a few Jamboards Spofford Pond School classes have been using lately:

| Learning about Taxation without Representation |
 |
| Science Vocabulary |
 |
| Animal Adaptations |
 |
| SEL Checkins |
How can technology be used to enhance a project and communicate knowledge?
How can we use this software to create original, innovative works and ideas?
How can we use this software to address the different needs, learning styles, interests and abilities of students?
