OpenBoard: An Open Source Interactive Whiteboard for Educators
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
**Brief:** _OpenBoard is an interactive open-source whiteboard tailored for schools and universities. Let’s take a look at what it offers!_
|
||||
|
||||
There are several open-source tools available for education. But, not all of them are impressively well-maintained at the level of commercial software put forward for schools and universities.
|
||||
|
||||
OpenBoard is one such exceptional free and open-source tool that enables education without any compromises. It is an interactive whiteboard program that features all the essential functionalities along with support for a variety of hardware.
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenBoard: Free and Open Source Interactive Whiteboard
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
As a free and open-source program, OpenBoard seems to be an impressive option.
|
||||
|
||||
The Education Department (DIP) of the canton of Geneva, in Switzerland, maintains the tool along with the community on GitHub.
|
||||
|
||||
It shouldn’t cost a fortune just to facilitate easy digital teaching through interactive whiteboards. And, this is where OpenBoard comes in.
|
||||
|
||||
It offers a range of features that should be enough for most schools and universities.
|
||||
|
||||
While I can’t test it out in a school/university setting, I shall highlight the key features that it offers.
|
||||
|
||||
### Features of OpenBoard
|
||||
|
||||
![][2]
|
||||
|
||||
An interactive whiteboard does not need numerous fancy features, but enough to make the experience easy for teachers to be able to express themselves as easily as possible.
|
||||
|
||||
Some of the features that I noticed include:
|
||||
|
||||
* Cross-platform support
|
||||
* Ability to draw/write freely.
|
||||
* The ability to add annotation.
|
||||
* You get to remove annotation.
|
||||
* Get the ability to highlight part of your whiteboard using highlighter.
|
||||
* Individually interact and move the items created/drawn.
|
||||
* Add multiple pages in an order to continue teaching without needing to erase.
|
||||
* Ability to scroll through the pages.
|
||||
* Draw a line (choosing from three different weights of lines)
|
||||
* Toggle Stylus mode (if you are using a pen tablet or similar)
|
||||
* Easy to erase the items created in the whiteboard
|
||||
* Choose from a set of different backgrounds, including ones that turn it into a blackboard or with grid lines.
|
||||
* A variety of essential applications including calculator, maps, ruler, and more is available to use through drag and drop.
|
||||
* Limited shapes available to make drawing easier.
|
||||
* Ability to add audio/video to your whiteboard and play it seamlessly for better experience.
|
||||
* Virtual laser pointer.
|
||||
* Option to zoom in and zoom out.
|
||||
* Write text, resize it, and clone it.
|
||||
* Take a screenshot of the screen from within the whiteboard.
|
||||
* Virtual keyboard available when required.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
In my brief testing, the user interface and the options available worked incredibly well, without any fail.
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
Of course, your experience will depend on the type of device and your setup. You can try it with a Wacom tablet, a dual-monitor setup, or using a projector through a touch-enabled laptop.
|
||||
|
||||
### Install OpenBoard in Linux
|
||||
|
||||
Fortunately, it is available across multiple platforms that include Windows, macOS, and Linux.
|
||||
|
||||
If you are using Ubuntu, you can head to its official website and download the DEB file. In either case, you can choose to [install the Flatpak package][4] from [Flathub][5] for any other Linux distribution.
|
||||
|
||||
[OpenBoard][6]
|
||||
|
||||
### Closing Thoughts
|
||||
|
||||
Overall, I found it effortless to use and navigate. You can quickly switch between multiple pages, erase/add items seamlessly while having the ability to add rich elements to the whiteboard as well.
|
||||
|
||||
The presence of a virtual laser pointer, and several applications, make it suitable for use in various schools and universities without any hiccups.
|
||||
|
||||
I don’t know if it can be called an alternative to Google Classroom or Miro’s Whiteboard feature but for simpler usage, OpenBoard does the job.
|
||||
|
||||
If you haven’t tried this out, I recommend giving it a spin. Is there something better than this that you know of? Let me know in the comments down below.

OpenBoard：面向教育工作者的开源交互式白板
|
||||
======
|
||||
|
||||
**简介：** _OpenBoard 是为学校和大学定制的交互式开源白板。让我们来看看它提供了什么！_
|
||||
|
||||
有几个开源工具可用于教育。但是，并非所有这些软件都在面向学校和大学的商业软件水平上得到了令人印象深刻的良好维护。
|
||||
|
||||
OpenBoard 就是这样一个特殊的免费开源工具，它可以在不妥协的情况下实现教育。它是一个交互式白板程序，具有所有基本功能，并支持各种硬件。
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenBoard：免费和开源的交互式白板
|
||||
|
||||
![][1]
|
||||
|
||||
作为一个免费和开源的程序，OpenBoard 似乎是一个令人印象深刻的选择。
|
||||
|
||||
瑞士日内瓦州的教育部门（DIP）与 GitHub 上的社区一起维护该工具。
|
||||
|
||||
为了通过交互式白板促进轻松的数字教学，它不应该花费巨资。这就是 OpenBoard 的优势所在。
|
||||
|
||||
它提供的一系列功能对大多数学校和大学来说应该是足够的。
|
||||
|
||||
虽然我无法在学校/大学环境中测试它，但我将强调它提供的主要功能。
|
||||
|
||||
### OpenBoard 的特点
|
||||
|
||||
![][2]
|
||||
|
||||
交互式白板不需要众多花哨的功能，但足以使教师能够尽可能轻松地表达自己。
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
我注意到的一些特点包括：
|
||||
|
||||
* 跨平台支持
|
||||
* 能够自由地画/写
|
||||
* 能够添加注释
|
||||
* 能够删除注释
|
||||
* 使用荧光笔高亮显示你的白板的一部分
|
||||
* 单独互动和移动创建/绘制的项目
|
||||
* 按顺序添加多个页面，继续教学而不需要擦除
|
||||
* 能够滚动浏览各页
|
||||
* 绘制线条（从三种不同线宽中选择）
|
||||
* 切换手写笔模式（如果你使用的是手写板或类似的东西）
|
||||
* 易于擦除在白板上创建的项目
|
||||
* 从一组不同的背景中选择，包括把它变成黑板或带网格线的背景
|
||||
* 各种必要的应用，包括计算器、地图、尺子等，都可以通过拖放使用
|
||||
* 可以使用有限的形状，使绘图更容易
|
||||
* 能够向你的白板添加音频/视频，并无缝播放，以获得更好的体验
|
||||
* 虚拟激光笔
|
||||
* 可选择放大和缩小
|
||||
* 写文字，调整大小，并克隆它
|
||||
* 从白板中对屏幕进行截图
|
||||
* 需要时可使用虚拟键盘
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
在我简短的测试中，用户界面和可用的选项工作得非常好，没有任何故障。
|
||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
当然，你的体验将取决于设备的类型和你的设置。你可以用 Wacom 平板电脑、双显示器设置，或者通过支持触摸的笔记本电脑使用投影仪来尝试。
|
||||
|
||||
### 在 Linux 中安装 OpenBoard
|
||||
|
||||
幸运的是，它可以在多个平台上使用，包括 Windows、macOS 和 Linux。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你使用的是 Ubuntu，你可以到官方网站下载 DEB 文件。另外对于其他 Linux 发行版，你可以选择通过 [Flathub][5] [安装 Flatpak 软件包][4]。
|
||||
|
||||
[OpenBoard][6]
|
||||
|
||||
### 结语
|
||||
|
||||
总的来说，我发现它在使用和导航方面毫不费力。你可以在多个页面之间快速切换，无缝擦除/添加项目，同时还可以在白板上添加丰富的元素。
|
||||
|
||||
虚拟激光笔的存在，以及一些应用，使它适合在各种学校和大学中使用而没有任何障碍。
|
||||
|
||||
我不知道它是否可以被称为谷歌课堂或 Miro 白板功能的替代品，但对于更简单的使用，OpenBoard 可以胜任。
|
||||
|
||||
如果你还没有试过，我建议你试一试。你知道有什么比这更好的东西吗？请在下面的评论中告诉我。
