Purpose and Practice
Purpose
Jamboard offers teachers a digital whiteboard for students within the GGUSD domain using both Chromebooks and iPads. Its versatility makes it easy for teachers to get all students on at the same time for visual thinking and collaborating.
With Jamboard, you can:
Write and draw.
Search Google and insert images or webpages.
Drag and resize text and images with your fingers.
Sketch a box, star, cat, or dragon. Image recognition technology converts your sketch into a polished image.
Share your jams with collaborators. Up to 50 people can work on a jam at once.
Practice (Look Fors)
Jamboards can be used for real time collaboration. Once teachers have created the space, students can join the Jamboard by going to a link shared by the teacher. While in this space, students can contribute to a shared space. They can either work on one slide together or split up can move around between the different slides on a Jamboard.
Jamboards can also be exported as an image to save student work.
