Google Jamboard指的是一个硬件和(and)一个软件工具。Google Jamboard — 物理对象 — 是一块加了类固醇的白板。它的成本接近 5,000 美元（这还不包括轧制机架的 1349 美元）。到目前为止，它最常用于工作场所和远程学习环境，如Google 课堂(Google Classroom)。
不过，您无需拥有Google Jamboard即可使用Jamboard应用。在本文中，我们将介绍如何使用Jamboard，即使您还没有购买实体数字白板产品。Google Jamboard 也(Google Jamboard)与其他Google应用程序集成。在本教程中，我们还将学习如何从Google Photos和Google Drive插入文件。
什么是 Google Jamboard？
Google Jamboard是一个55 英寸的白板屏幕，可连接到手机和平板电脑。想象一下(Imagine)，您正在参加一场头脑风暴会议，其中一些人在房间里，而其他人则远程连接。房间中的Jamboard可供参与者像传统白板一样使用，但它也可以投射到环聊(Hangouts)视频会议中，以便远程参与者可以与房间中的人协作。
换句话说，Google Jamboard结合了物理白板的手感和功能与白板应用程序的分布式协作功能。
拥有Google(Google)帐户的任何人都可以使用Google Jamboard应用程序。
如何使用Jamboard 应用程序进行白板(Jamboard App)
首先访问Jamboard 的桌面网站(Jamboard’s desktop site)jamboard.google.com 或安装适用于Android或iOS的(iOS)Jamboard应用程序。
登录(Log)Google帐户，然后选择或点击加(Plus)号图标开始创建新的Jam。一旦您创建了一个新的 Jam，它就会自动保存到您的帐户中。
如何绘制、书写和添加笔记
您可以使用许多Jamboard工具进行协作。(Jamboard)当您处理果酱时，您可以像在传统白板和其他白板应用程序中一样绘制、书写和添加笔记。
选择绘图(Drawing )工具以从不同宽度和颜色的钢笔、记号笔、荧光笔和画笔中进行选择。在应用程序中，用手指在框架内绘图。在桌面站点上，使用鼠标。橡皮擦始终可以擦除绘图的任何部分。
如果您在移动设备上使用该应用程序，则可以从绘图工具访问(Drawing )辅助绘图(Assistive drawing tools)工具。如果您用手指潦草地写了一些文字，辅助绘图工具可以将您的小鸡划痕转换为文字。同样，如果你画了一个不稳定的圆圈，辅助绘图工具可以清理它并使其成为完美的形状。

How to Use the Google Jamboard App
Google Jamboard referѕ to a pieсe of hardwarе and a software tool. Google Jamboard— the physical object—is a whiteboard on steroids. It costs nearly $5,000 (and that’s not even including the $1349 for a rolling stand). So far, it’s most often used in the workplace and in distance learning settings like Google Classroom.
However, you don’t have to own a Google Jamboard to use the Jamboard app. In this article, we’ll walk through how to use Jamboard even if you haven’t bought the physical digital whiteboard product. Google Jamboard integrates with other Google apps, too. In this tutorial, we’ll also learn how to insert files from Google Photos and Google Drive.
What Is a Google Jamboard?
A Google Jamboard is a 55” whiteboard screen that connects to phones and tablets. Imagine you’re in a brainstorming meeting where some people are in the room, and others are connected remotely. The Jamboard in the room is available to participants to use like a traditional whiteboard, but it can also project into a Hangouts video meeting so remote participants can collaborate with the people in the room.
In other words, Google Jamboard combines the hand-on feel and features of a physical whiteboard with the distributed collaboration features of a whiteboard app.
The Google Jamboard app is available to anyone with a Google account.
How to Whiteboard with the Jamboard App
Begin by either visiting Jamboard’s desktop site at jamboard.google.com or installing the Jamboard app for Android or iOS.
Log into a Google account, and begin by selecting or tapping the Plus icon to create a new Jam. As soon as you create a new jam, it’s automatically saved to your account.
How to Draw, Write, and Add Notes
There are many Jamboard tools you can use to collaborate. When you’re working on a jam, you can draw, write, and add notes just like you can on traditional whiteboards and in other whiteboard applications.
Select the Drawing tool to choose from among pens, markers, highlighters, and brushes of different widths and colors. In the app, use your finger to draw inside the frame. On the desktop site, use the mouse. The eraser is always available to erase any part of your drawing.
If you’re using the app on a mobile device, you can access Assistive drawing tools from the Drawing tool. If you’ve scrawled some text with your finger, the assistive drawing tools can convert your chicken scratches to text. Similarly, if you draw a wonky circle, the assistive drawing tool can clean it up and make it a perfect shape.
Select Insert note from the toolbar to add a virtual sticky note. You can change the note’s color and type directly in the note itself. Similarly, select Text Box to be able to type directly in the jam.
How to Add an Image to a Jam
You can search for images inside a jam, which is a feature we haven’t seen in other whiteboard apps like Microsoft Whiteboard.
If you’re using Jamboard in a browser, select the Image tool from the toolbar. Next, select an image file to add to the jam by selecting one of the following methods:
- Upload from your computer
- By URL
- Camera
- Google image search
- Google Drive
- Google Photos
Once you’ve located the image you want to add to the jam, select Insert, and the image will appear on the jam.
From a jam in the Jamboard app, tap the Expand icon (+) and then select Image library. Select an image and it will be inserted into the jam where you can resize it as you wish. If you don’t see the resizing controls, pinch and zoom in on the jam until you see the controls.
How to Insert a File from Google Drive into a Jam
You’ll need to be using the Google Jamboard app to add Drive files to a jam, so if you’ve only been using Jamboard in a web browser, start by installing the app on your mobile device.
Open an existing jam or create a new one. Then from the toolbar, select Expand (+), and then Drive content. Choose a file from your Google Docs, Google Slides, or other files in Google Drive and tap Select. The file will be inserted into the jam.
How to Add, Rearrange, Copy, or Delete Jam Frames
If you’re using Google Jamboard in a web browser or the app, use the frame toolbar at the top of the screen to add, rearrange, copy, or delete jam frames.
Selecting the arrow to the right of the frames icon will create a new frame.
Select the frames icon itself to view all the frames in the jam. From there you can click and drag frames to reorder them.
Select the plus icon between frames to insert a frame. To delete or duplicate a frame, select the frame and then select the More icon (three dots) and choose Delete or Duplicate.
How to Share a Jam with Others
Google Jamboard works best as a collaboration tool. Work with other people on a jam in real time, or share a jam with others so they can edit it later. You can also give others view-only access to a jam.
From your computer, open or create a new jam and select the Share button. Enter the people or groups you want to share with and say whether they can edit or just view the jam. Then select the Done button.
If you want to share the jam as a file from your computer, download the jam as a PNG or PDF file by selecting the More icon and then choosing Download as PDF or Save frame as image.
From the Jamboard app, open or create a jam and tap the More icon and then Share. Enter a name or email address and select whether people with the link can edit or only view the jam. Tap the Send icon.
If you want to share your jam from the app as a PDF, open the jam you want to share, tap the More icon, and then tap Share Jam as PDF. From there, select how you want to share the PDF file.
To share a specific frame as a PNG file from the app, tap More > Share this frame as an image and follow the on-screen instruction.

To see a jam’s version history, view it on a computer. Open the jam, select More > See version history.
What Are Jams Good For?
It’s obvious that Google Jamboard could be a great educational technology tool for remote teaching and learning from kindergarten to high school. In any learning environment, it’s important for each learner to feel engaged.
Google Jamboard takes this edtech to the Google workspace in other industries, too, because, really, we’re all lifelong learners and collaborators.
