Zoom Whiteboard  

In classrooms with both face-to-face and remote students, where the instructor needs to illustrate content such as formulas and math equations there are numerous electronic whiteboard solutions to choose from. UNH has a campus-wide license for Zoom, which facilitates both face to face and remote students in the same classroom. Enabling students to see and capture whiteboard contents can be accomplished in a number of ways.

Instructors should set clear expectations with the assistant on the tasks they will perform, and how they should interact with the instructor and students.?
