How Pencil Spaces solves it
Pencil Spaces solves part of this today. The rest still needs your team’s judgment.
On launch morning, a student on a locked-down Chromebook runs Tech Check before class. Camera and microphone pass in the browser, and Connection Status flags a weak network. The tech lead fixes it before the lesson starts, not during it.
- Any DeviceAvailablePencil Spaces works in the browser on Chromebooks, old laptops and phones, with touch and stylus support, so nobody is left out.
- Tech CheckAvailableTech Check tests camera, microphone and connection automatically beforehand, so problems get fixed before class, not during it.
- Connection StatusAvailableConnection Status shows each person’s connection quality live, with automatic fixes and guides when something goes wrong.
The usual way
Tech staff troubleshoot device by device on the morning of launch.
A tip you can use today
Run a test lesson from the actual school network and devices a week before launch, not from the office.
See it in a live Space.
We’ll walk you through it, shaped around how you teach.
