Ed-tech is one of the fastest-growing industries in the world. Teachers and students are adapting to new norms of teaching online.
The concern of teachers is: How can we provide a learning environment for students? The amalgamation of technology & education started with a “digital whiteboard”. Where schools buy touch-supported digital whiteboards. In 2021, it got upgraded with a “web whiteboard” with a teaching environment. Where you don’t need to spend money on buying any devices.

How Online Whiteboard Works

An interactive whiteboard in www.standupmeet.com
Tools: (Text, Circle, Square, Arrow, Line)
Teachers like me have terrible handwriting & drawing skills on whiteboards. We don’t need to worry about bad drawing with a web whiteboard. Cause, text, circle, square, line most common shapes are directly available.
Pencil:
Pencil tools let you draw at your will. It becomes handy when you’re drawing shapes of different sizes. This comes in handy in writing complex math formulas too.
Board Download:
Students and teachers don’t need to worry about taking and saving notes. With one click only, they both can download the board and save it in a local file.
Upload Files:
You can reupload boards from the previous class. For revision. You don’t need to draw complex figures every time. You can directly upload ppt, image, videos on the web whiteboard.
Color Palette:
Simple drag and drop color picker for each object you want to draw or write. Many whiteboards provide hex code for custom color selection tools.
Mouse Selector & Hand Selector & Eraser:
Mouse selector Helps you drag and move specific objects on board. While hand selector lets you move the whole board. You can delete any object with the help of an eraser.
Laser Pointer:
You’ve uploaded a previous board, video, or image on the whiteboard. The selector will help you draw the focus of your students to a specific part of the board.
What’s an Interactive whiteboard
On a normal whiteboard, only the teacher/host can make changes. Other members like students or colleagues are mere viewers.
In the interactive whiteboard, the host/teacher can share edit access with students. It opens new avenues of interactive education. It is a paid feature in most other techs. You can sign up and use it for free with standupmeet.com

Advance Features

Interactive questions Online games and social media are highly destructive for attention. We’ve noticed that teachers are currently using additional teachers for monitoring the classroom, calling parents for non-attention. Which is very frustrating. Simply prepare questionnaires according to the topic you’re preparing. Call out students, one by one to solve this concern live on a whiteboard for physics & maths-related technical solutions. You can know in which steps students are struggling and tailor your next class accordingly. What about language and non-technical subjects? We’ve introduced a quiz feature. Simply copy-paste questions and ask directly to students as a quiz. From the right answers, you can know who is attentive in the classroom.
Self Learning Groups Cohort-based education is growing rapidly in online education. From kids to professional learning is slowly shifting towards peer learning. With Standupmeet execution of cohort-based education is super simple. You can divide your classroom into small groups. Create new pages of the new whiteboard and assign to groups. Host competitions, doubt-solving sessions within groups. This will create an engaging environment in the classroom. The positive point on www.standupmeet.com is, you can create unlimited new boards for free.
Rewarding Students Rewarding students for positive actions builds good habits. Many teachers of Standupmeet provide icons like stars, unicorns for children. You can upload any customization icon downloaded from the internet.
Interactive games From memory games to quiz, to pairing up students provide an amazing opportunity to get to know classmates better, learning with fun.
Visual Note Taking Visual note-taking is a fundamental process of structured thinking. The creation of mind map, flow charts help teachers provide a structured overview of concepts they are going to teach. visit www.standupmeet.com for more details and schedule seamless online classes with standupmeet.com

OKR + AGILE is going to be the “feature factory” model.

Many companies struggle to fit OKR and Agile, although both seem to share the same philosophy. Teams using Agile often resist adopting OKR since it appears redundant to them.
Misunderstanding about OKR and Agile itself. When used correctly, OKR and Agile are a powerful combination. They can create Value-driven teams and transform how organizations work.
Agile was created to deliver software.
The Agile Manifesto itself is misleading as it tells people to measure deliverables. “Working software is the primary measure of progress,” , The teams are just there to flesh out the details, code, and test. They have little understanding of the bigger context and even less belief that these are in fact the right solutions.
They measure progress by output and not the outcome
Like any other tool, OKR can be misused and become a to-do list. But, if you want to focus on value, your goals have to reflect that. You have to use Value-based Key Results:

Value-based OKRs are not about simply measuring outcomes. You have to understand what is valuable to your customers and your organization.

The examples below show the difference between the two types of Key Results:
Activity-based Key results Vs Value-based Key results
Develop new landing page (activity-based key result) ->
Value-based Key results are like below

Generate 200 qualified leads
Increase lead conversion by 5% to 10%
Reduce the customer acquisition cost from $35 to $22

Key Result Examples
When you use Agile with Activity-based Key Results, it creates friction. Agile teams already have roadmaps, so why do they need OKRs? Every time I meet teem struggling to connect OKR and Agile, they are focusing on activities.

Using Value-based OKRs can be transformative. It can be the missing link between Agile and Lean. In can bridge the gap between product and engineering.
