For education professor Linnea Lyding, the reason to use Jamboard is simple: “It was very exciting to see and hear the engagement as I flipped through the boards, went into the breakout rooms, and walked around my classroom. The students were actively processing the information.” The popular collaborative digital whiteboard helped Lyding make her hybrid classroom “as interactive as my in-person class,” and she adapted six teaching strategies for use with the tool.

🗺️ Concept maps: To help students structure and make meaning of what they’re learning, Lyding puts them into breakout rooms and has them create a diagram to map out what they know. “The cool thing is that virtual and in-person students can work together on the same board at the same time,” says Lyding, and she can hop in and out of the breakout rooms to listen in on conversations.

When students finish, they present their work to the whole class, which gives Lyding a chance to give feedback. “I was able to expand on what they said and correct misconceptions,” she says.

🖼️ Gallery walks: Lyding uses this approach to assess students’ understanding. She puts a different review question on each board and has groups in breakout rooms discuss and write a response to each question. As her students rotate through each board, they build on or challenge their peers’ responses. These written discussions let Lyding know how well students grasp the course content.

💡Idea lineup: Lyding uses this before and after discussions on topics that students have strong feelings about. She starts by splitting a Jamboard in half, with opposed positions on the two sides, and students put their initials or a picture on the side they take. After a discussion and/or Lyding’s lesson, they can change sides, and discuss why they did or didn’t change.

🗒️ Vocabulary vine: To strengthen students’ understanding of important terms, Lyding preloads each board with the vocabulary words on sticky notes and has students come up with a way to connect one term to another.
