Whiteboard App Allows for Improved Collaboration in Virtual Meetings

Continuous Improvement is a big part of FST, something Jamie Wilson, as FST Project Administrator and Continuous Improvement Committee Member, knows very well. 

In an effort to promote Continuous Improvement across the University, Jamie gave a wonderfully informative demo of the Whiteboard App at the most recent Fiscal Administrators Meeting. 

The app gives you a virtual Whiteboard to use and share with others over Zoom. You can also invite others to edit the Whiteboard so you can collaborate with them in real-time. 

Some of the functionalities and tools available include: 

  • free-drawing
  • enhancement/correction
  • text boxes
  • templates for project management
  • stickers
  • annotations
  • exporting options--you can save your Whiteboard for future reference!
A few features stood out during Jamie's presentation. One was the ability to select part of your Whiteboard with the lasso tool, and then move the selected text or image around the board. This feature could really help when making lists and organizing notes. 

Also, the templates include familiar options like kanban boards. As James Gorman commented, "it's a good way to approximate the conference room experience."




You can view Jamie's full Whiteboard demo here. The app is purchasable through the Microsoft store. To download it, follow the below steps.
