This is a very useful video not only because it's introducing a very useful and innovative piece of software, but also because you mention how NOT to use it! And anyone who has watched previous installments in the series will recognize how Brett's advice is grounded in research on handwritten notes and learning. I don't use Whiteboard myself (it doesn't lend itself to the kind of collaboration I do) but I am very much looking forward to the next installment on low-formality presentation. I bet there are many lessons for academics (both teachers and those presenting their scholarly work)!
At my work we can't leave information on whiteboards as part of our security standards. We use Miro but that's because the company is full of Apple fans who seem to think a computer doesn't need a touch screen or a pen.
This looks to be an excellent collaboration vehicle for students brainstorming in class. Currently our students are using answergarden to gather brainstorming ideas but whiteboarding looks to be less clunky to access and easier to digitally store (rather than snipping answergarden screen) Well worth a go with whiteboarding
The whiteboard feature in MS Teams is a great idea...it is slow, tho, at times and I hope MS will make the experience more refined because it's a great tool deployment in the perfect environment (i.e. MS Teams).
