...but I've also read that "[norsk verb]+er" is equivalent to "[engelsk verb]+ing"

Jeg hopper = I'm jumping
Den hoppende elefanten = The jumping elefant
barnet skriker = the child is screaming
skrikende barn = screaming children
vannet koker = the water is boiling
det kokende vannet - the boiling water
-ende is usually used when it's describing a noun. -er is when something/someone is doing something or something is happening.
