Teachers can also enhance classroom interactivity with the program by broadcasting live demo screens to participants, marking up the featured screen to highlight a lesson, creating monitored chat rooms, or allowing students to send private questions via an instant-message button on their PC. With NetOp School, instructors can also send coursework and files to all student PCs, remote control students for one-on-one instruction, shut down or restart PCs, and view their connected classroom in several different ways.
