Version 25.1

Net Control ² Classroom, Net Control ² Professional and Net Control ² SmallClass updated to version 25.1

The teacher module GUI improvements:

  • Six color groups (three new color groups added) make possible dividing students of the class into six groups; students of a color group can be selected by one click on the respective button of the left toolbar.
  • Color tabs at the top of the connections list; when the respective color group tab is clicked, the connections list will show only the connections of that color group.
  • Filters: computers in the connections list can be filtered by various criteria, using the new Filter button in the bottom right-hand corner of the teacher console.
  • Queues of help requests and hand raise requests: the teacher console shows the order number of help and hand raise requests, so the teacher can know which request was the first one, the second one and so on.
  • The new help and hand raise requests panel provides quick access to the requests and logs of processed requests.
  • When a teacher calls on a student, a full screen notification is displayed on the student computers, which the student cannot miss.
  • The Student Groups Manager button is removed from the left toolbar and moved to the Advanced tools tab of the top toolbar.
  • The popup connection information toolbar of the Connections list can be immediately shown by pressing the Shift + Space key.

Updated client for Android

Net Control 2 Classroom mobile client for Android has been updated to version 24.11

We are pleased to announce the release of a new mobile client for Android OS for the Net Control 2 Classroom edition.

The previous version of the mobile client was released in 2017 (with minimal subsequent changes), and supported work with the teacher module version 11. The new version has been completely rewritten and is based on a single code with other platforms, which implies the possibility of easier adaptation to subsequent versions in the future.

In particular, the new version:

  • Supports the latest versions of Android and is recommended for Android versions 9.0 and higher;
  • Specifically designed for 64-bit platforms;
  • Adapted for tablets with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 and higher, but can also be launched on devices with smaller screen sizes and resolutions;
  • Supports work with the teacher module version 24;
  • Already available for download from your user account.
