Overall Satisfaction with Miro

It is not used widely but is suggested by the faculty of Architecture and design as a tool that could be used to help support students. How we use it is completely up to the individual. I have personally used it as a tool both to help with my teaching, as well as scheduling and helping with general team collaboration for my own classes.
  • Scheduling and project management.
  • Online design critiques/Feedback for learning.
  • One-stop place for ideas.
  • Loading times when files start to get too heavy.
  • Browser performance - some students refused to use the dedicated app.
  • Max file size uploads.
  • Improved Productivity.
  • Reduced repeat questions.
  • Helped align objectives from the beginning.
I think it works well overall - I think having separate spaces and boards is a little confusing, and perhaps having 3 most recent boards is a little too limiting for those who don't have corporate accounts. I do like the exporting feature, which is something I've used a lot.
It's easy enough to figure out and there are a lot of nice presets. For those of us who like to create things in a custom way, I think it still works well if you know what you are doing. I think more featured examples from other users in the community can help spark creativity and inspiration in how to maximise Miro's potential.
Miro has allowed everyone to work on one project fairly seamlessly no matter where we are located - it helped a lot with remote work, such as group marking with other teachers, as well as remote teaching - where some of my students were in other countries around the world.

Miro is great for team collaboration, project management, and live discussion and feedback. It is also great in scenarios where I can leave certain pieces of information such as a general pinboard so that students have a singular place they can refer to - this also cuts down on the number of repeat questions from emails I receive. Where I think it lacks is still in some of the annotation tools which work fine but could be far more sophisticated.
