“Increasingly, schools want to empower students to bring their own mobile computing devices to class,” said Dana Doggett, President and Founder of LanSchool. “With greater device management from LanSchool and the ability to create private cloud networks by Stoneware, the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) movement in education can now rapidly get underway.”

LanSchool has led the way in education for classroom management, giving teachers a way to capitalize on the technology that their institutions have put into their teaching environments. Stoneware has spent a decade enabling the delivery of educational applications and services though a web browser.

LanSchool Announces Tech Console Device Management Software for Schools

Software enables Tech Coordinators to remotely manage all computers within a school or district from a central location at no cost for the first year

June 26, 2011, Philadelphia, PA—LanSchool Technologies, the leading provider of cross-platform classroom management software, today announced at ISTE 2011, LanSchool Tech Console, the new management console for use by Tech Coordinators. With TechConsole, an individual tech coordinator can easily manage, monitor and communicate with hundreds of individual classroom computers remotely from a central console, which displays the current state of all computers under management within a district or school.

“LanSchool has focused on delivering affordable classroom management software designed to help teachers become better educators in the computer-aided classroom,” said Dana Doggett, President and Founder of LanSchool. “With the Tech Console, we are helping tech coordinators become better managers of the technology they are responsible for.”

With the Tech Console, coordinators can install applications, upgrades and updates remotely to ensure that each computer on the network is running the most current software. Tech Console also allows tech coordinators to report on inventory and technology usage. To help address the needs of teachers, coordinators can use the Tech Console to communicate directly with them via live chat or remote control, guiding them through issues or alerting them of potential problems.

“We received a great deal of input from tech coordinators on their specific needs,” said Ben Cahoon, Vice President at LanSchool. “We believe that most desktop management products have become too complex for most schools. Tech Coordinators need powerful, yet simple tools to help them manage the computers they are responsible for.”

In addition to remote control, inventory and software distribution, the Tech Console enables coordinators to improve uptime by checking the security settings on each computer, verifying automatic updates and even controlling Windows SteadyState™. To conserve energy costs, tech coordinators can also set and optimize power consumption levels on all computers saving school energy costs.

Finally, to help schools through the funding challenges over the next school year, LanSchool is providing the Tech Console to K-20 educational institutions free of charge for the first year.

Teachers in a computer-equipped class struggle getting through to students who are playing games, texting friends, shopping, hacking, Facebooking, or even downloading inappropriate content or cyber-bullying. With LanSchool 7.6, teachers can effortlessly manage this environment.

Specifically the new software version allows teachers to:

• Automated SIS Class List Import Import class lists from any student information system that can export .csv files.
• Send/Collect Directories Transfer files to computers in the classroom, including the ability to send and collect directories.

In addition, LanSchool has added greater support for technologies that are making their way into the 21st century classrooms.

WMS Support Windows Multipoint Server (WMS) enables one host computer to be shared by multiple students at the same time. This in turn enables schools to save 66% on the costs of hardware, energy and maintenance and making the classroom easier to manage with fewer computers to worry about.

Linux Support A lot of school classrooms are moving towards the use of Linux devices. With the addition of Linux support, LanSchool 7.6 can now manage Linux, Windows, Mac, thin clients and iPads simultaneously in a truly heterogeneous classroom environment.

Vernier Support Teachers can now manage the Vernier LabQuest device, a scientific probe for diagnostics, in the classroom.

“When I use LanSchool and Vernier’s Logger Pro software with my seventh grade students, they cheer out loud. I give the students a data-collection challenge and project the entire classroom’s graphs as they collect scientific data in real time. My students get excited, ask questions of other students about their data, and learn from each other,” said Glen Westbroek, science teacher and recipient of the Presidential Award for Excellence in Mathematics and Science Teaching. “The combination of LanSchool and Vernier creates a truly collaborative science classroom. The announcement that LanSchool is now compatible with LabQuest will open the door of scientific collaboration to thousands of students across the country.”

LanSchool Technologies Backs Classroom Management Software With Unique Technical Support Policy

Orem , Utah January 24, 2007 -LanSchool Technologies, developer of classroom-management and training software, today announced a unique technical support policy. The "Zero Bug" technical support policy from LanSchool guarantees that if a customer has a problem with LanSchool products, which cannot be resolved over the telephone or via email, LanSchool will send a developer to a customer's site anywhere in the continental United States or Canada to resolve the issue in person.

"LanSchool technology reduces concerns for downtime and empowers teachers in the classroom. The end result is attentive students who are prepared to learn."

"Our classroom and library solutions are so solidly designed that we don't run into many technical problems," said Dana Doggett, President of LanSchool Technologies. "However, we believe that if one customer has a legitimate problem with our software, then 10 others might as well. Our goal is happy customers, to that end, we are willing to fly one of our developers to a customer's site to find and fix the problem."

The products that fall under this technical support policy are LanSchool v6.5 and LanSchool Monitor v2.0.
