7 Awesome Collaborative Whiteboard Tools for Teachers

The best thing about  these collaborative whiteboards is that they encourage students to learn collaboratively, a skill much needed in the 21st century education. Being a whiteboard means that you can use it not only as a collaboration tool but also to host virtual   brainstorming  sessions with your students and best of all, the flow of ideas never stop. Students can work simultaneously on a certain project with everyone drawing, sketching, scribbling, and adding their touch to the final work. They can also save their whiteboard and refer back to it when needed.

There are actually several whiteboard tools out there . Each one has different features and provides different services but with so many options it becomes hard for you to select the one that works best for your  students.
