SoftLINK allows the instructor to show their desktop to connected trainee Android tablets. This is a great way to ensure all students follow-along during your presentation and stay on task.

Class Surveys

Teachers can conduct on-the-fly surveys to gauge the classes' knowledge and comprehension. The teacher sends the survey question to the students, they respond in real-time, results are tallied for the instructor's review. The instructor can elect to show the results to the whole class, enabling students to receive immediate feedback on their progress. This is a great feature to use to determine if you need to review specific areas of a lesson or if the class has a great understanding of the material.

Blank Trainee Screens

Teachers used to flash the lights in the classroom to get the students' attention, but in today's modern classrooms there is a more effective way. SoftLINK gives the instructor the ability to black-out the Android screens. All the Android tablets go dark and attention is directed to the instructor. With the tap of an icon the instructor can return the student's screen back to their local screen. It's that simple.

Chat with Students

Both the student and the teacher can initiate an online conversation. This is a great way for a student to communicate with an instructor so they can refer back to the chat when needing to reference an assignment or specific instructions for a project.
