Senso’s Top Tips for Classroom Management Skills using the Class Cloud

• Use the live thumbnail view in order to observe what your students are doing on their computers, allowing them to stay on track and topic.
• By maximizing the live thumbnail view tool, the close tab feature allows you to shut anything down before escalation.
• To avoid the use of the close tab feature, you may choose to block content completely with our easy-to-use Access Module.
• The Class Cloud allows teachers to send files to students on any scale, saving time from distributing paper while also catering files to different students’ levels and needs.

Live Thumbnail View

Our live thumbnail view is an essential tool for keeping students on track and encouraging responsive classrooms. This tool allows teachers and administrators to see the screens of their students in real-time, ensuring they are on appropriate websites and most importantly completing the task at hand. Teachers can also take actions such as using the lock screen function, closing tabs, or blocking web access.

Lock Screen Function

This vital tool encourages concentration by allowing teachers to lock all student computers simultaneously. This ensures students focus on the teacher and class discussion, avoiding distractions from the Internet.

Send File

Teachers can send files and documents directly to students, either individually or as a group. This feature allows for differentiated instruction without embarrassment, ensuring each student receives resources tailored to their needs.

Screen Sharing

With screen sharing, students can view the teacher’s screen directly on their devices. This ensures all students can follow along easily without straining to see a central screen. Teachers can also take control of all screens to ensure uniform attention.

Block Web Feature

The block web feature enables teachers to activate or deactivate Internet browsing without interrupting key functions. This minimizes distractions and encourages students to focus on class discussions and tasks.

Close Tab

To protect student safety and keep them on task, teachers can quickly close any tabs displaying inappropriate or distracting content.

Block Sites with the Access Module

The Access Module allows teachers to block specific websites and flag keywords to prevent exposure to harmful content. It also enables selective unblocking of specific URLs, providing flexibility in educational content delivery.

Learning Management System (LMS)

The Senso Learn Learning Management System provides resources for teacher training, compliance courses, and online student safety management. It tracks staff progress and equips them with the skills needed for successful and responsive classrooms.
