If you use Microsoft Teams in your classrooms, life just got easier as Microsoft Whiteboard is directly built into Teams.

With everyone on the same Whiteboard, live cursor identities will allow you to see where students are, who is actively engaged with the work, and which students might need additional help or clarification on the tasks. Add your content to the board, open it in a Teams meeting, or invite your students to the board and see their creativity blossom. When it comes to group projects and interactive lessons, you may want a little more structure. This summer, Microsoft Whiteboard will make it simpler to upload digital worksheets that you already have to the board, or create new ones using structured organizers that will come with the app. Run your lessons with a video conferencing application like Microsoft Teams for the best experience. For a more guided experience, you will be able to lock your students' view so that they see what you see. As whiteboards are inherently non-linear, you have the flexibility to dynamically change the flow of the lesson depending on the conversations that come up and where those discussions take you. This summer, you will also be able to use the laser pointer to draw attention to important concepts. Annotate over your lesson with digital ink, highlighters, stickers, sticky notes, and text boxes for special emphasis.

Right now, educators have full control over who can edit the whiteboard and when. Microsoft Whiteboard can help your class get focused on the right things.


You can save time by creating the boards ahead of class and then simply opening the previously created whiteboard during class to get going. Coming this summer to our Whiteboard web client and Whiteboard in Teams app, you'll be able to pull in images, content from other documents, shapes, and stickers to add fun and life to your lessons. Microsoft Whiteboard gives you tools to create beautifully engaging content for your class. We understand that one of the hardest things for an educator to do, is to keep a student's attention throughout the class. With its infinite canvas and focus on teamwork, Whiteboard provides a place for teachers and students to develop ideas together in an ad hoc or in a formulated way, whether the class is taught remotely, in hybrid mode, or in person. Microsoft Whiteboard is a visually rich and interactive education tool that supports creative teaching and learning.
