labconsole present --deck GL120.pdf

Teach in the same window as the labs

The lecture half of a technical class should not live in a different product than the hands-on half. LabConsole's classroom puts presentation, voice, video, timers, and chat where the labs already are.

page 42 --with-pointer

Presentation that stays in sync

Upload your PDF deck and present it synchronized to every student - the page you are on is the page they see, with your laser pointer live on top of it. The page you turn to is the page they see, with your laser pointer drawn on top of it.

  • Synchronized PDF slides with a live laser pointer
  • Students can review earlier pages, then snap back to you
  • Share any lab machine's screen to the class, read-only
A slide goes on stage, the laser and the ink move over it, one click swaps it for the book, then the instructor's own machine takes the stage; on the student's side one click switches between the presentation and their own console, or pops it out onto a second screen
chapter 3 of the tour - the deck, the pointer, any machine in the room on stage, and the student's toggle

labconsole media --start audio,camera

Built-in voice and video

Instructor audio and camera video are built into the classroom window, so there is no second app to join. Students hear you next to the material and the labs.

  • Instructor-started audio and camera video
  • Media locks and mute controls stay with the instructor
  • No separate meeting link
The instructor turns on their microphone and camera, starts a lab timer that counts down on every student's screen, and a student who needs more time presses one button so a badge lands on their card
chapter 5 of the tour - voice, video, a timer, and one button for feedback

sleep 900 && wall "time"

Pace the class, read the room

Start a countdown when you send the class into a lab; every student sees the clock. While they work, the grid shows you real progress and the feedback channel tells you how the pace feels.

  • Countdown timers for labs and breaks
  • Live pace and confusion feedback from students
  • Class-wide and private chat, always available
