Every tool your
lesson could want.
From a quick pen stroke to a full interactive quiz — here's what you can build on the SPADE canvas.
Writing
Draw, highlight, or erase straight on the canvas — even over a playing video. Set your own pen and highlighter colors and sizes to take notes, sketch a concept, or drill letters and numbers live.
Line insertion
Drop in straight lines, curves, or waves to connect ideas visually. Tune the size, color, and style — solid or dashed — for clean, readable diagrams.
Object insertion
Add and reshape objects with ease: recolor, resize, reposition, add borders. Group them, animate their movement, and link them to docs or media for fully interactive lessons.
Link features
Turn any static object into something clickable — link it to a website, another canvas, or a media file.
Build board games or quizzes by wiring objects to different canvases, one tap at a time.
Animation
Use animation to hide or reveal instructions, spotlight key content, or walk students through a step at a time with a single click.
In a quiz, pop a tick for the right answer and a cross for the wrong one. Adapt a built-in template or build your own.
Spotlight
Hide objects and reveal them exactly when you need to, using a circle or square spotlight.
Uncover numbers, letters, or steps one by one to keep the whole room leaning in.
Video & audio
Pull audio and video straight onto the canvas to enrich a lesson or presentation without switching apps.
Text insertion
Full control over text: color, size, typeface, and background. Rotate, reposition, and restyle text boxes to fit any layout.
On-screen keyboard
Type anywhere on the canvas without a physical keyboard — ideal for touchscreens and interactive displays. Perfect for labeling, quick answers, and student input at the board.
Interactive insertion
Drop in ready-made interactive pieces to gamify any lesson:
- ✓ Dice
- ✓ Color wheel
- ✓ Vowel animation
Screen recording & clipping
Record a full canvas session or clip just part of the screen. Great for saving lessons or turning them into reusable learning material.
