How can faculty utilize features similar to a whiteboard in Teams?

Overview

Teams has a Whiteboard feature that can be used to write on. However, if recording a session, this information will not be recorded. Everyone in the session is also able to write on/erase the whiteboard. This feature should only be used when collaborating with the students and if the information does not need to be saved in a recording.

For faculty members that want to use a similar feature to whiteboard, especially for remote students, it is recommended to utilize the Microsoft Office Drawing/Inking tools that are built into that software.
