Jamboard is a FREE digital whiteboard app. You can draw with it. Add images. Insert text. Share easily. What makes it different? Knowing that can help you use it effectively. In this video, you'll see what's special about Jamboard and how you can use it in class.

How do you use Jamboard with students? There are LOTS of ways. In this video, I'll share my top 3 ways for using it in a classroom. These work whether you're teaching face to face or remotely, whether you're teaching young students, older students, or adult learners.

It's easy to make your own activities in Jamboard and share them with students. It just takes three steps. In this video, I'll walk you through the three steps to creating Jamboard templates to assign to students. You'll be making your own templates for your students in no time.

Jamboard is an empty canvas. You start with blank frames and can create whatever you and your students need. But what do you create? And how do you do it? Some guidance, creativity, and inspiration can do the trick. In this video, I'll share how you can do more with Jamboard.

Save yourself some time by using premade templates! These templates are ready made for Google Slides, Drawings, PowerPoint, and Jamboard.

With Adobe Spark, you can teach your students graphic design, video creation, web page design, and more. These projects can be adapted for most grade levels and subject areas and are an ideal means of integrating authentic, 21st century learning with technology.

The show will include walk-throughs of lesson plan ideas for how to use Adobe Spark with students, demonstrations of how to use the program, and examples of actual projects Sam's students have created in Adobe.
