Reducing Prep Time for Lessons with Internet Co-Browsing

Many teachers in today's modern classroom rely on instruction using web based tools. One problem reported with this style of instruction is time wasted on preparation and assisting students with the navigation of some highly valuable, however difficult to navigate web tools. In some cases, by the time students are in place and are ready to begin working, the class period is already over because the whole lesson was spent on setup. Many times there is the assumption that students will remember how to navigate through the site and will spend time in the library after school to finish the assignment. What if you could avoid this and get it right the first time?

With the internet co-browse feature of CrossTec SchoolVue, teachers can now decrease prep time and reduce the time assisting students with navigation of highly valuable, but difficult to use websites. Simply open the internet co-browse function in the Tutor console toolbar and SchoolVue will open the browser window. From here you can help navigate all of the students simultaneously through the site and let them browse freely after you get to the destination. If at any point during the lesson you would like to sync them back to a certain page, press the “Lock” and resynchronize them.
