As teachers and administrators are once again thinking through major transitions in learning locations and models, classroom.cloud is now fully available domestically.
classroom.cloud provides unique flexibility, allowing teachers to monitor the applications and internet use on each student’s computer no matter where they are connected. With classroom.cloud, a teacher can launch a learning tool or open a website for every student in the class at the same time or bring individual students back on task when they have wandered away from the lesson whether they’re in the classroom or at home or somewhere in between.
“Now teachers everywhere can rely on classroom.cloud to manage their students’ technology and keep them on task either learning at home, at school, or in a hybrid model, or even when moving back and forth between the two,” said Al Kingsley, the CEO of NetSupport. “It is, we believe, the easiest, most flexible and most effective classroom management tool on the market anywhere.”
classroom.cloud is particularly relevant during the ongoing pandemic transitions because it can be accessed from anywhere, it works on many platforms, and it integrates with Google Classroom and Microsoft School Data Sync to pre-populate classes. Additional features of classroom.cloud include:
- Screen sharing with voice, chat, and messaging
- Quick surveys to assess understanding and issue rewards, which helps motivate and engage students
- One-click teacher re-routing to lock or redirect student screens, individually or all at once
- Student monitoring by the teacher is easy and private
classroom.cloud, like all NetSupport solutions, is heavily piloted and tested in real classrooms. NetSupport made classroom.cloud available, for example, in a pre-launch to a limited number of schools and districts in 2020. Its use during the transition to remote learning and through hybrid models has provided invaluable insight for the company as well as educators. Teachers may request a free 30-day trial here.
“NetSupport already had classroom.cloud in development before the pandemic started and we accelerated its pre-launch to give access to a limited number of school districts that had the greatest need,” said Kingsley. “Having been through that fire, we are now delighted to share our great classroom management solution in this wide release.”
NetSupport, based in the U.K. and U.S., is one of the longest standing education technology companies in the world and has more than 18 million devices running on its systems and platforms, including approximately 5 million in the United States.
