Miro is indeed a great tool and definitely more intuitive than it might feel after you have read my article. I suggest you just create a free account and play with the features yourself to see how simple and user-friendly everything is on this platform. As for the student collaboration, you can still use an unpaid account, you will just have to ask your students to create free accounts as well and sign in to be able to collaborate. Education plan (which is free but requires application form) allows your students to collaborate without the need to sign in if you make your board public.
The board games are something I make myself for my classes but depending on the language you teach you will be able to find free worksheets on different platforms where teachers share their materials. https://islcollective.com/ is one of those.
I hope I was able to answer your questions!

This looks like a great tool, though I admit that I felt overwhelmed by the end of the article. I have three questions. First, it sounds like so much work to put together a synchronous lesson of new material–is it more intuitive than it feels at this moment? Also, when you’re teaching new material and then have students collaborate, is it better to have a paid subscription? Finally, and forgive my ignorance here–but where do you find .pdfs of board games? Thank you! ~Margot
