The problem
Can’t reach a student’s screen
When a student is stuck on their own computer, the tutor can only describe each click. Younger learners and tricky setups turn a minute’s fix into ten.
La méthode habituelle
Tutors talk students through every step, or give up and move on.
How Pencil Spaces solves it
Talking a student through a fix one click at a time eats into the lesson, especially with younger learners or a tricky setup. With Remote Desktop Control, a tutor will be able to ask to take control of a screen a student is sharing. Nothing happens until the student agrees, and control can be handed back at any time. It helps with software setup as much as with teaching, for example showing a step in a coding exercise. In development.
Quels sont les changements ?
Problems solved in seconds, and more of the lesson spent learning.
What we’re building
- Ask to control a shared screen
- Nothing happens until the sharer agrees
- Control handed back at any time
- For setup help as well as for teaching
What it looks like
Dans la pratique
A student sharing his screen can’t get a coding exercise to run. His tutor asks to take control, he agrees, she shows the step and hands control back.
In a 1:1 lesson
Your young student can’t find the setting. You ask to take control, fix it and hand it back.
In a group class
A student’s coding environment won’t start, so you take control with her agreement and the class keeps going.
In a virtual training
You take control of a participant’s shared screen, with their agreement, to show the step in their own software.
In your classroom
On a remote day, you fix a student’s setup through his shared screen, with his agreement.
In the training room
A remote joiner’s software won’t open, and you fix it through their shared screen.
At home
Your son’s tutor fixes his stuck program after he agrees, and the lesson carries on.
