Shared Software
Run software together.
Learning software by watching someone else click doesn’t stick, and screen control handovers are slow. Shared Software runs applications on collaborative virtual machines that several people control at once, inside the Space.
Teaching a student software by screen share means they watch while you click. With a shared virtual machine, you both control the same app, each with your own named cursor.
In a software class, students learn by doing, not watching your screen. They work in the same application with you, each with their own named cursor.
Software training over screen share turns into “now click there”. Participants control the real application with you on a shared virtual machine.
Installing the same software on every school device is a project. Run it on a shared virtual machine in the Space, and students use it from their Chromebooks.
Getting every laptop in the room set up with the same software takes half the morning. Run it on a shared virtual machine, and everyone uses it from the browser.
If your child is learning software, a teacher can work in the same app with them, each with their own cursor, with nothing to install at home.

The problem
Watching someone click doesn’t teach software
Software skills come from hands-on practice, but most online lessons can only show a screen. Handing over control is slow, and installing tools on every device is harder still.
一般的な方法
Teachers screen share and narrate, use remote-control features one person at a time, or ask everyone to install the software first.
How Pencil Spaces solves it
Shared control software: collaborative virtual machines where several people control applications at the same time, each with their own named cursor. It works for a web browser or any desktop application a course needs.
変更点
Learners practice in real tools with the teacher alongside.
What it looks like
実際には
A web browser runs on a shared virtual machine inside the Space: the student types a search while the teacher clicks a result, each with their own named cursor.
In a 1:1 lesson
Your student practices in a design app on the shared machine. You both have cursors, so you show her a shortcut without taking over.
In a group class
Students work in the same desktop application on a shared machine, and you guide them from inside it.
In a virtual training
Participants practice in your company’s desktop tool on a shared machine. You see every cursor and step in where someone hesitates.
In your classroom
Students use a desktop application they don’t have installed, running on a shared machine in the Space, from their Chromebooks.
In the training room
Every participant uses the same desktop tool on a shared machine from their laptop, with no installs before the workshop.
At home
Your son learns a coding tool with his teacher on a shared machine. They both type in the same app, and nothing is installed on your computer.
