Splashtop App

The splashtop app may be used to remotely control a pc using an iPad. Install the app on the iPad and then download the free streaming program to the computer. It works well and there are mouse controls available to the Ipad through gestures.

The app does not appear to allow the use of pens when accessing the Smartboard, but slides may be advanced.

The photo below is from an IB Spanish class where the students are accessing the course webpage using the Ipad and the student actions on the website are being shown on Smartboard for all to see. The students may easily interact with the website and the Ipad can be passed from student to student so that there is a lot of interaction. AD

Note that there is sometimes a change of projected screen size when this app is engaged and this took place on an XP PC.
