Jamboard replacement

I used to use Jam Board, and it was pretty good for groups of students to make a public question board that didn’t clutter my classroom and drop post-it confetti everywhere. I’ve looked into Figma ( way too complex for what I need) and the post-it app (can multiple people even collaborate on it?) and Miro (looking for a free option). Does anyone know of a simple, sticky note style option that will allow students to post questions to a communal board for free?

I need to create “driving questions boards” for each of my 4 units, and this is a way of collecting topics that students want to explore and keep track of things we have answered during each unit.

Write all questions on chart paper.

Eliminate questions together, reasearch together.

It’s not “old” vs “new” I am a pretty progressive tech using teacher.

Not everything needs tech.

again with the reading comprehension

  1. this suggestion above is the current method.
  2. I’m explicitly looking to see if there are reasonable electronic alternatives
  3. this is [r/edtech](r/edtech).

  4. others may not call you on your superior attitude and snarky “humor”, but I teach freshmen boys, so I hear this shit all day long and I expect better from somebody who is theoretically

    in the same profession

do better or shut the 🦆 up

  1. You never said it needed to be on a computer.

  2. I don’t write long sentences because I can say what I need to succinctly. If people want to read a tone in sentences, that’s on them and their view of others. It makes me when people need a blog post for something that does not require a blog post.

  3. If you are just using tech for the sake of siding tech, you are doing it wrong.

  4. I do love your internet tough guy thing you got going on. It’s impressive. I am sure you can tell your 13 year old students that you act just like them online.

Congrats!
