Q & A
What is Google Jamboard and how can it be utilized in remote teaching?
-Google Jamboard is an interactive tool that can be used to enhance remote teaching by making lessons more engaging and interactive. It can be used for both synchronous and asynchronous learning, allowing teachers and students to collaborate in real-time or at their own pace.
How can you create a new Jamboard and what are the customizable options available?
-To create a new Jamboard, go to the bottom right corner on the homepage and select the 'Add' button. You can then name your Jamboard and customize the background with options like blank, dotted lines, lined paper, graph paper, or different colors.
What tools are available for interaction on Google Jamboard?
-Interaction tools on Google Jamboard include a pen tool with various types and colors, an eraser, a select tool, a sticky note tool with customizable colors and text, an image tool for adding and editing images, and a laser tool for pointing.
How can you share a Google Jamboard with students and what are the access levels?
-You can share a Google Jamboard with students by clicking the blue 'Share' button and entering individual names or by generating a link. Access levels can be set to 'Editor' for students who can interact with the board or 'Viewer' for those who can only see the content.
What are some potential issues with full editing access for students on Google Jamboard?
-Full editing access allows students to alter or erase anything on the board, which can be problematic if they edit or remove content that the teacher or other students need. Teachers can address this by teaching digital citizenship skills or changing access levels to 'Viewer' if necessary.
How can Google Jamboard be used for preview activities in lessons?
-Google Jamboard can be used for preview activities by creating sticky notes where students record observations about an image or concept provided by the teacher. This encourages active participation and helps students feel part of a class community.
What is the process for using Google Jamboard with the EquatIO extension for math teaching?
-To use Google Jamboard with EquatIO, first open a Google Doc and use EquatIO to input math problems either by speaking or handwriting. Once the problem is generated as an image, it can be copied and pasted onto a Google Jamboard, which can have its background changed to graph paper for better context.
How can Google Jamboard be used for math problem solving and modeling?
-Teachers can model how to solve math problems on Google Jamboard by pasting equations generated with EquatIO. Students can then solve problems on their own designated panels within the Jamboard, using various tools to show their work directly on the page.
What are some ways to hold students accountable for their work on Google Jamboard?
-Students can be asked to save their work as an image and upload it to a learning management system like Google Classroom as an assignment. Alternatively, teachers can create separate Jamboards for individual students, with different panels for each assignment.
How can Google Jamboard be used for emotional expression or reflection?
-Google Jamboard can be used for emotional expression by having students post images that represent how they're feeling at the start of the day. For reflection, students can post an image with a caption summarizing an important learning from the week.
What are some tips for managing student interactions on Google Jamboard?
-Teachers can manage student interactions by discussing digital citizenship norms and expectations, monitoring student edits during synchronous sessions, and adjusting access levels between 'Editor' and 'Viewer' as needed to maintain order and focus.
