LanSchool. A must-have for a computer lab!
LanSchool has been a integral product for my teaching and assessments when teaching in a computer lab environment. As the instructor I can control what is being conducted on student computers and can share my screen with the students where they can follow along with my demonstrations on one of their monitors. I no longer see squinting at the projected screen at the front of the room. I can also lock their screens so they cannot do other tasks during lectures. Finally we use it during assessments to keep students honest on exams. I can see their screens and lock down the computers via whitelisting or blacklisting sites or applications. It has been a great tool all the way around.
- Screen broadcasting.
- Whitelisting/blacklisting applications.
- Use it to connect to multiple computers, log in, and install software instead of going around one by one.
- Screen locking.
- Updating of application connecting directly (if licensed) instead of forcing me to go to website, sign in to download. This is not teacher oriented.
- It is cheaper than online proctoring when we are doing the face to face exams with less pushback from the students.

Great for classroom technology integration and classroom management!
Every single one of our STEM education instructors uses LanSchool in our classrooms. We are able to control student computers, prep them for students before they arrive for setup, etc. It is a game changer for integrating technology in our classrooms!
- Ease of use
- Multiple functions
- classroom management
- Sometimes when "blanking" screens, it interrupts or freezes our student's computers, making them have to start over.
- I wish that we could "delete" things from the drop-down "run" menu. Instead, they have to just wait until they eventually get bumped off after not using for a while. I also wish we could have this be the same on all of our classroom computers.
- Would be great if it was easier to retrieve files from student computers. Great function, but it is really tedious and complicated to do so.
- Helps us serve thousands of students each year
- Has helped us improve classroom management
- Saves us time with technology set up (e.g. being able to do all from Lanschool, not having to set up each individual computer every day)
I was not part of the process picking a software
