What is Microsoft Whiteboard?
Microsoft Whiteboard provides a freeform intelligent canvas where teams can ideate, create, and collaborate visually. Designed for pen and touch, it lets you write or draw as smoothly as you would with ink, while automatically recognising and transforming shapes and tables as you draw.
It enhances teamwork by allowing all team members to edit and comment directly on the canvas in real time, no matter where they are.
Microsoft Whiteboard provides a canvas where imagination has room to grow: draw, type, add a sticky (note) or an image, stack things up, move them around – it’s all possible. The touch-first, pen-first interface frees your ideas from the keyboard, and the intelligent inking technology transforms your doodles into great-looking tables, shapes, and lines that can be copied, pasted, and combined with other objects.
How to find Microsoft Whiteboard from your staff device:
School laptop or desktop:
Teaching staff can find Microsoft Whiteboard by searching for the application in the search toolbar at the bottom of your screen. It is already downloaded on staff devices for your convenience.
Alternatively, for ease of access, you can place an icon for the application on your desktop as you would normally do for any other application or pin it to your taskbar as shown on the right.
