Digital Classroom: Capture and Share Whiteboard Notes Instantly

classroom whiteboard notes digital

Can one link replace messy photos, lost handouts, and missed explanations?

We help teachers turn analog work into live, searchable content in seconds. Open a board, share a link, and students join from laptops, tablets, or phones. This cuts setup time and keeps your teaching focused.

Instant collaboration lets learners annotate, ask questions, and follow along in real time. Built-in video and voice keep instruction personal while the lesson stays front and center.

Drag images or import specific PDF pages, use Math tools for clean formulas, then export PNG, SVG, or PDF to archive lessons. This approach preserves context and makes it easy to revisit or hand off material.

Key Takeaways

  • We enable fast capture of analog work so students can follow and revisit lessons.
  • Our platform supports real-time collaboration with low setup and strong compatibility.
  • Integrated video and voice keep instruction personal and efficient.
  • Import images and PDFs, use math tools, and export lesson-ready files.

How it works in your classroom: from whiteboard to organized digital content

Launch a session fast, invite students with one link, and keep your lesson moving.

We keep setup simple so you start teaching in seconds. Open an online whiteboard, click share to copy the link, and invite your classโ€”students join without signups. This quick start reduces delays and preserves classroom momentum.

Structure the board before you teach. Add a short agenda slide or sticky cluster to set objectives. Then use live annotation for a clear, engaging presentation.

Best practices to streamline workflow

  • Enable an A4 page grid so each segment becomes a printable page you can export as a PDF.
  • Color-code stickies and assign roles to speed group work and checks for understanding.
  • Use in-board voice/video or share your screen to match varied learning styles while you write.
  • Capture formative work on dedicated pages and export mid-lesson for feedback or records.
  • For quick activities, use a free online board that auto-saves up to 24 hours; move long-term projects into permanent storage on the platform.

FAQ

What is the fastest way to capture and share board notes during a lesson?

Open a new board, drop in images or PDFs, and share the board link. The platform supports drag-and-drop import and instant link sharing so you can start teaching and distributing content in seconds across laptops, tablets, and smartphones.

Is there a free option for teachers and schools to try this tool?

Yes. We offer a free-to-start plan that gives educators core featuresโ€”real-time collaboration, basic export options, and quick boardsโ€”so teachers can evaluate the workflow before upgrading to plans with longer-term storage and advanced tools.

How do students collaborate in real time during group work?

How do permission controls work for teachers and students?

Teachers set board-level permissions when sharing linksโ€”view-only, comment, or edit. Permissions can be adjusted per board or per user, giving educators control over collaboration and safeguarding student work.

Can I use the tool without installing an app?

Yes. The platform is browser-based and app-friendly. You can run full functionality in modern browsers, or use native apps for offline access and optimized tablet experiences.
