Application allows students to collaborate on projects, get tutoring from a distance
Tucson, AZ (08/09/12) – Keyware, Inc., maker of the award-winning Action Alert™ parental control software application, announces the introduction of SafeShare™, an easy and convenient computer program that could be the best back-to-school tool for students and parents alike. SafeShare allows multiple approved users to view each other’s screens, allowing for interactive Internet connections between students, groups, and tutors. Students who can’t meet in person can now expediently collaborate online on group assignments, tutoring projects or homework, all without tying up phone lines. SafeShare essentially puts tutors or peers in the same room with student – even when they are miles apart.
Unlike other free Internet sharing applications, SafeShare allows users to view multiple screens at once, and SafeShare uses VOIP (voice over Internet protocol), so users don’t need to tie up phone lines while collaborating. The application also includes a rewind feature, just like a DVR, and users can get a close-up of what their friends are seeing just by clicking on thumbnails.
SafeShare installs easily in seconds and, after that, it’s as simple as inviting friends and in a click, the sharing begins. SafeShare works with all online programs and websites.
SafeShare gives users and parents peace of mind, too, because they can specify a safe user group for their children, allowing only friends who are known and approved of to join. Plus, parents can ensure responsible Internet behavior by recording and reviewing what children are doing online.
