The BigBlueButton project is pleased to announce the release of BigBlueButton 2.6, a major update that features a powerful, yet easy-to-use, new whiteboard for increased engagement with students.
This release also includes enhancements to breakout rooms, polling, layout management, and a few bonus features for personalization and fun in your virtual classroom.
A Whiteboard That Wows
This release features a new and elegant whiteboard that supports fluid drawing, erasing, resizing, and moving of objects within the presentation area. It fully supports multi-user whiteboard capabilities, so you can collaborate directly with students for one-on-one tutoring, group collaboration, and visual assessment. The whiteboard is designed for drawing, and your strokes and annotations will look fluid and hand-drawn.
