myViewBoard Tips

Using myViewBoard

myViewBoard is a digital whiteboarding platform that provides teachers with a suite of tools for creating and delivering engaging, interactive lessons. It's used to transform traditional static slides and presentations into dynamic, multimedia-rich experiences, supporting both in-person and remote teaching.

Using myViewBoard is NOT required to use the ViewSonic Display, but can be used to create interactive presentations similar to using Smart Notebook with the Smartboards. If you have existing Smart Notebook files, myViewBoard will open them and convert them to a Whiteboard.

When you open myViewBoard, at the bottom right corner of the whiteboard screen, you’ll see a small user icon. Click that to open the login window and select the Google option on the bottom left. Your default browser window will open and you can sign in with your @pv-eagles account.

Once you sign in, it’ll ask if you want to stay signed in. You can click yes.

At the bottom of the myViewBoard screen you’ll see your Toolbars.
