which Software Is Best For Teaching?

Hi Folks,

I am John Smith, and I am a teacher in a convent school. I was searching for a platform or any teaching software for a school where I could interact with students remotely, even after school hours, so that any organization could increase the productivity of learning. Somewhere on Google, I read about Lanschool by Lenovo.

Is anyone aware of it, and what is their experience with it? 

Our cloud-based classroom management system gives teachers the tools they need to interact with students. All operating systems and situations involving many devices are compatible with them.

This doesn’t look like something you can do on your own. It’s something for the CIO of your convent.

For example, it should integrate with system the school already has, since you write about “our cloud based … system”. Why do you think you need a second system|?

Does not sound like a good choice.

I agree with Kees that this is something for your CIO and IT to pick and implement.

My view is that “best” is also a trap. I’ve seen people and companies fixate on best when what they really need is a solution. Then it’s a matter of seeing if the solution works and is not going to blow the budget.

Here’s a write up of LANSCHOOL. Frankly it sounds like ZOOM is good enough if you need an all hours student interaction system. The student can get on the call at a time agreed upon for teaching or what is needed at the time.

“LANSCHOOL is a software product designed for classroom management, monitoring, and collaboration. It allows teachers to control students’ computer activity, share content, and communicate with them in real-time.

LANSCHOOL has been around for many years and is a well-established product in the education technology space. It has received positive reviews from many educators who find it helpful in managing their classroom activities and ensuring that students stay on task.

That being said, the effectiveness of LANSCHOOL may depend on the specific needs of your classroom and teaching style. Some educators may find it too controlling or intrusive, while others may find it to be a valuable tool for managing their students’ computer use.

Overall, LANSCHOOL is a reputable and well-regarded product in the education technology space. If you are looking for a tool to help you manage your classroom activities and keep your students on task, it may be worth considering. However, as with any software product, it’s always a good idea to do your research and try it out for yourself to see if it meets your needs.”

When something “does not sound like a good choice,” it usually means that there are factors or information that suggest that it is not a wise decision. This can apply to various situations such as making a purchase, choosing a career path, or deciding on a course of action. For example, if someone is considering buying a used car that has a history of frequent breakdowns and repairs, it would not sound like a good choice. Similarly, if a job offer requires long hours and low pay, it would not sound like a good choice for someone seeking a work-life balance. It’s important to trust your instincts and consider all the factors before making a decision. If something does not sound like a good choice, it’s worth taking the time to research and explore other options that may be more suitable. In the end, making a wise decision can save time, money, and frustration in the long run
