Miro is a cloud-based collaboration and whiteboarding platform. It is best known as an interactive whiteboard where several people can brainstorm, write, and plan tasks together. You can also make presentations in Miro and create templates for reuse and sharing.

How can you use Miro?

The Education Division has acquired Miro primarily for use to support teaching and learning, and license access is only given to employees. Due to the high price, relatively few licenses have currently been acquired. Students are invited as guests to the boards, and have full editing options in these, but cannot establish new boards.

Miro has many functions that are suitable for use in teaching, teaching design, group and collaborative learning and project work. The learning support section is developing more resources for how you can use Miro and these will be available continuously.

Miro has a lot of its own resources about how to use it. In addition to many resources and examples they run webinars about how to get the most from Miro. Have a look on their website to find a webinar or resource that interests you.
