Student Feedback mode
Teachers can choose between several visual options to gauge feedback from the students; helping to capture how they feel, their confidence in a topic and whether they need extra support – allowing teachers to take appropriate actions where needed. Teachers can drill down into each student’s mood/understanding – or view the class average result, helping the teacher to see the general mood/understanding across the class at a quick glance.
Teacher user modes
As schools continue to invest in edtech, it’s important there are as few barriers to its use as possible. With this in mind, NetSupport School ensures its features and functions are accessible to all teaching staff – regardless of their tech experience and knowledge – with its three modes for using the Tutor Console’s user interface: Easy, Intermediate and Advanced. The new ‘Easy’ mode will allow technology-shy teachers to only see and use the core tools needed to maintain control over the class – supporting simplicity and ease of use.
