Zoom whiteboards include templates

Zoom Workplace is a familiar video conferencing platform equipped with communication tools that enhance online instruction. Zoom has updated its online whiteboards with features that can take the place of Google’s defunct Jamboard. The new whiteboards have tools for adding text and sticky notes and can be used with templates for group activities. 

As a meeting host, you can prepare a whiteboard in advance for efficient use of class time. Afterward, save the work for future sessions (with no limit to concurrently editable whiteboards). This allows students to pick up where they left off. Want to expand access to a whiteboard? Look for the blue share button to select contacts with whom to send a link. Whiteboards can also be exported as a .pdf, .png, or .csv file. For more details see this UH ITS resource, Tutorial – Zoom Whiteboards.
