This video has been sooo good! I am teaching Maths and now am feeling inspired to try out Miro for my students. Really needed ideas and simple guidance on how to share the link etc. Thank you for your video! 😊

Thank you, Dr. Matty. Extremely helpful! I'm starting to teach with Miro tomorrow and your video helped me have a lot more clarity and a lot less anxiety over how it looks. Appreciate it!

You’re very welcome Maddie, good luck for your session tomorrow - let me know how it goes!

@@DrMattyWood Hi, Dr. Matty! Things are going really well with using Miro; I'm off to the races, hooray! Quick question: with the timer tool, is that something you downloaded--I have looked for it on my board and not located it yet...somehow, I get the feeling it is so obvious I'm simply missing it!

@@KatfishInk Hey Kat, so glad it's going well for you! I think they've moved the timer - it's now along the top bar. If you press the button with the square, triangle, circle and plus (the 'show apps' icon) the stopwatch icon should appear for your timer
