The editor button allows you to communicate via a whiteboard. This feature can be used to leave messages to other students within your team or to work on assignments. The editor feature gives you a template that looks similar to a whiteboard.
Many students use the whiteboard to collaborate with others on assignments.
Depending on how many team members you have, each member can be given a different color. For example, Mary can be yellow and Joe can be Blue. This gives your team members an idea at first glance on who is doing what. A group can work on their whole assignment in this manner and once the assignment is completed then you can copy and paste the information into your word processor and simply upload the completed assignment to your professor. If you are on a PC you must use Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or higher in order to use this Whiteboard feature.
