Setting the Control Preferences

By default, you have sole control of the student’s desktop. However, you can share

control with the student. If you share control, both you and the student can control the

student’s desktop. However, if both of you are trying to control the desktop at the same

time, your actions take precedence over the student’s.

If you make a change the control preferences while you’re already

controlling a student’s desktop, the change takes effect immediately. For

example, if you have sole control of a student’s desktop and you change

the setting to Shared, you immediately share control of the student’s

desktop with the student.

l

If you take control of a student’s computer and it’s running the Windows

Vista operating system, the control of the computer is always shared

regardless of how you set the control preferences. When both you and the

student try to control the computer, the student’s actions take precedence.

To share control of a

student’s desktop

1. Select Options > Preferences.

The Preferences dialog box appears.

2. Click the Control tab.

3. Select Shared.

4. Click OK.
