Wyse WSM and NetSupport School

Complete classroom management for ICT Teachers and IT Technicians

Today’s increasingly PC-literate students, with their growing reliance on the internet, present a variety of challenges to busy ICT teachers - many of whom are expected to balance managing the content of their student's desktops - with maintaining a fully-focused learning environment.

Powerful classroom partnership
Wyse WSM and NetSupport School combine to provide ICT teachers with a powerful solution to delivering a better and more manageable learning experience.

NetSupport School is a class-leading training software solution, providing teachers with the ability to instruct, monitor and interact with their students either individually, as a pre-defined group, or as a whole class.

The latest version of NetSupport School includes:

• advanced classroom PC monitoring
• real-time presentation and annotation tools
• innovative customized testing suite
• internet and application control
• real-time audio monitoring
• automated lesson plans
• printer management
• instant messenger control
• content monitoring and desktop security

NetSupport School helps teachers and trainers improve the efficiency of ICT teaching by centrally instructing students from their computer, maintain student focus by monitoring application and web usage, track language lab audio activity, improve support through online help and chat requests, and save time by automatically sending and collecting work files or quickly polling the class and showing instant results.

NetSupport School software is purchased separately. A free 90 day trial of NetSupport School is available for download with Wyse WSM and 1 year's free NetSupport School software maintenance is available when Wyse WSM is purchased.
