Great product for online collaboration

We encourage faculty to use Miro when they need a collaborative online workspace in their courses. The ability to expand into an essentially endless amount of space and customize the workspace fully is appealing to faculty. It works well in classes where groups of students are working together on a project, problem, or other collaborative activity - the groups can all be working on a Miro board in their own spaces and the faculty can then move among the student groups virtually to check-in, answer questions, and provide feedback. We have used it on our own team for meetings where we have small group discussion time followed by reporting out to the whole team - it keeps everyone's work together in one place and creates a comprehensive document of all the work done by the teams.

We used it at a recent staff retreat to conduct a number of brainstorming and planning activities. It creates a space for the kind of free-form collaboration that normally can only happen at in-person meetings. Used in conjunction with Zoom (and breakout rooms), we had an excellent strategic planning meeting and Miro facilitated that.
