classroom.cloud – Instruction, Online Safety, IT Management

Teachers can easily connect to their students’ devices quickly and easily by a range of methods and see thumbnails of all connected students’ devices on their screen to monitor activity. With classroom.cloud, teachers can easily explain and demonstrate lesson activity using the screen sharing and audio broadcast features – plus remedy any unwanted activity with remote control tools or by simply locking the students’ screens. Keeping students focused and on track is easy with ‘allowed’ and ‘restricted’ lists of websites and applications, password reset– as well as chat and messaging tools for interaction, guidance and collaboration.

Using class surveys, teachers gain instant feedback on topic understanding and can gamify assessment by using the ‘random select’ mode which selects students at random to answer the question. In addition, to reinforce good behavior, correct answers, and celebrate great pieces of work, teachers can assign ‘rewards’ during the lesson.  Any students who find themselves struggling with a task can send discreet help requests directly to the teacher.

In addition, schools can ensure that their students are safe at all times (and in any location) with the online safety toolkit. This helps to keep the school’s online environment protected by monitoring concerning activity, identifying students at risk, and spotting online safety trends – even in Microsoft Teams. Its range of proactive and reactive tools include multi-language keyword and phrase monitoring, word cloud of trending topics, contextual intelligence-based Risk Index, and more.

For technicians, classroom.cloud is easy to set up, configure, manage, and use – virtually taking care of itself! Integrating directly with the school’s existing infrastructure and with Google Classroom, ClassLink and Microsoft School Data Sync, they can deploy it in minutes and manage teacher and student devices centrally – saving a bunch of time. Plus, they can see at a glance how the school’s technology is being used and how to maximise it with the hardware and software inventories, power management, activity monitoring – and more.
