Whiteboard

Online whiteboards seem to be promoted mostly for the business sector but they have several very obvious advantages for educational use. These tools provide simultaneous collaboration on a surface that resembles a whiteboard. Users can ad text, line drawings or images - all of which can be moved, resized, duplicated or deleted by any user.


 * Dabbleboard** is an excellent example of this type of tool. Its advantages over other similar sites are its ability to import images from your computer or the internet, its ability to create a reusable library and its variety of line drawing options. A task could begin with a blank canvas or with a template to be completed by users. On your first visit to Dabbleboard it is a good idea to **Take the Tour** and watch a short video and read about some of its functionality.

 * Scribblar** is a similar tool that is also quite versatile and impressive to use.


 * Scriblink** has similar functionality but is definitely aimed at business and lacks the fine detail to match the other two.
