Information and Communication Technology (ICT) is crucial in improving teaching and helping students develop their English language skills. The use of digital technology, such as mobile devices and applications, is becoming increasingly common in education. Google Jamboard is one such tool that enhances student learning experiences by creating an interactive environment. It makes learning English writing more exciting and creative, allowing students and teachers to collaborate actively. A study was conducted on seven high school students of twelfth grade using qualitative methods and case study approaches. Data was collected through closed questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. The results showed that students expressed positive views about using Google Jamboard in their writing classes, stating that it makes learning more creative, exciting, improves motivation, collaboration, language development, and reduces anxiety. Overall, Google Jamboard is making a significant contribution as a learning platform in English writing classes.
