Creating a Multipage Whiteboard in Blackboard Collaborate Ultra

NOTE: The new whiteboard is currently in beta and is not generally available to all Collaborate Ultra clients.

With the launch of the NEW Whiteboard available in Blackboard Collaborate Ultra, it now provides a workaround to allow for a multipage whiteboard. Rather than utilizing the “Share Blank Whiteboard” tool, you can upload a multipage PDF document with several blank pages. This will allow you to draw on each of the uploaded pages.

The multipage document can be created by opening a blank Word document and using the Page Break feature to create multiple blank pages. Additionally, a Graph Paper template can be used to draw on graphing paper.
