The SchoolVue Difference
SchoolVue enables you to see, save, and print a report of every
application or web site your students have used during your class.
Mouse over a student PC thumbnail and it increases in size
giving you a closer, real-time, view of what students are doing.
Tests show that SchoolVue is not only faster and more stable
but it has been optimized for wireless networks.
Built-In Printer, Audio and USB, DVD/CD Drive Controls
White board with your class, pass off control to a student, mark
up the screen – even in non Tutor programs.
Co-browse web sites to show the class features and then leave
them on that Internet site to work independently.
Use Internet and Application Restrictions to lock down the
student's PC and allow only those web sites and programs
required in class.

Acceptable Use Policies
Web Filters
URL Recording Monitors
White Lists
Acceptable Use Policies work by informing
students and parents what is allowed and what isn’t
and assuming the child will do what is right.
Web Filters, which are updated by tech
coordinators, or the manufacturer, block sites that are
deemed inappropriate. Teachers can request that
sites be blocked or allowed but this often takes time.
Web monitors such as EMS track and record web
traffic. If inappropriate sites are found they can be
added to the Web Filter application.
White Lists such as SchoolVue enable a teacher
to block ALL sites (or software applications) except for
the ones that are useful to a specific course or class.
