Monitor display for classroom

Schnooper · 26th November 2009, 12:40 PM

Hi Guys,

I am looking for some hardware or software that will allow for a teacher to flip student monitors between student PC and what is on the teachers PC. So the teacher can change the display of the student PCs to demo what they are doing. You see it in places like excom etc.

Does anyone know of such a product?

AB Tutor has this functionality, along with abit of other classroom / pc management.

Netop

iTALC does this. Can do alot of other stuff aswell such as locking screens, logging of, shutting down ETC.

Cool, thanks for the feedback guys. BTW, it needs to support Windows 7, so that discounts Netop and iTALC.

Can you please keep the ideas comming..... Thanks

+1 for AB Tutor, lots of features over and above your initial requirements but you will find many invaluable once they are at your disposal... Education pricing is also very affordable.

Well not wrong, as that page says "Support for Microsoft Windows 7 coming soon!"

As the project is starting in the next 2 weeks, I need something that works now.

But thanks anyway.

Our Server amins at schoolhave Italc on every computer I.E over 500 and yes ITalc now supports Win7 if unable to find the drivers shall I ask the I.T guys where they got it and if its on a disk to possibley burn me on then copy it onto PC and upload it?

You can dodge it to make it work on Vista/7 but most people want something that doesn't require that kind of messing around. Italc 2 is supposed to work but certainly won't make your deadline. I've got it to compile and run on linux clients but again, probably more work and less reliability than you're chasing.

iTALC is good for a free product, but does require a bit of messing around with to get working (and a few tweaks if you want certain setups)

i spent a good week working on it and still didnt decide to switch over to it

Can I go back to school?
