I absolutely love the ease of use of SMART Sync. I have been using it for over a year now and it has made my life as a computer teacher so much easier. I am able to help my students and monitor their progress as they work. I am able to share websites and files on all computers simultaneously. I am also able to allow all students to view another student's work. SMART Sync has doubled my productivity while cutting in half the amount of time spent on manual tasks.Kara Norris, Technology Coordinator/Teacher
Bishop Flaget School, Chillicothe, OH
SMART Sync is a tremendous tool. It's not about catching students doing the wrong thing; it's about helping them do the job they need to do when they're in the computer lab! And the time it saves our teachers is priceless.Danelle Conkey, Technology Coordinator
Wooster High School, Reno, NV
I have been using SMART Sync since version 3 and with SMART’s tech support and the improvements over the years, it has proven itself reliable and a very powerful tool for our clients in a lab environment. The software has given me the ability to broadcast and control the computers to ensure that the students are using it for learning the right material and not just browsing online and chatting.Mohamed Mohamed, Network Manager
Concordia University, Montreal, Quebec
SMART Sync has been instrumental in my technology instruction with middle schoolers. Students can see closely what I'm demonstrating. Use of the red highlighter is huge. Ability to send students to a specific website is huge. Ability to lock computers for attention is WONDERFUL. LOVE LOVE LOVE it. With SMART Sync I'm able to redirect students without getting into their personal space. This saves them from a verbal reprimand and helps them avoid losing face with their peers.Jeanne Dally-Steele, Computer Technology Teacher
Hamilton School - MMSD, Madison, WI
SMART Sync makes it easier for me to engage students in learning. It has been used very successfully in the schools I have worked in. So much so that we are making it a district standard when we build a new school or lab.John Roffe, MIS Network Specialist

SMART Sync engages students in the learning process by enabling them to share their work with the rest of the class.Alison Gregory, Assistant Professor and Instructional Services Librarian
Lycoming College, Williamsport, PA
I have used SMART Sync for nearly four years and it has greatly enhanced my teaching capabilities and the students' experience. The amount of time the software has saved me is immeasurable, and the ability to manage my classroom more effectively is amazing. As for the students, they are able to interact with me in a way that is not only more meaningful, but they enjoy doing so this way, too, which in turn makes for a better learning environment for all.Allen Brooks, Technology Teacher/Coordinator
San Elijo Middle School, San Elijo, CA
At the Eleanor Briggs School we have found our greatest success in reaching students by using the SMART Sync software, because the students are "actively engaged" in the learning process and they feel "better about themselves" because everyone can participate in the lesson, no matter the level of their reading ability.Anthony Caetano, Special Education Coordinator
Eleanor Briggs School, Warwick, RI
SMART Sync has allowed me to focus on teaching instead of troubleshooting. Now instead of taking time out of my lesson to help an individual find something on their computer, I can quickly take control of their screen as they watch along and show them where it is.Chris Skrzypchak, Computer Teacher
Heineman Middle School, Algonquin, IL
The software allows me to manage my classroom without the students even realizing they are being "managed." It has cut down on the "attitude" and kids don't give me a hard time if I catch them off task. They sort of laugh and get right back to work. The students love it.Deb Buehler, Business Instructor
Norborne School District, Norborne, MO
With SMART Sync I can show students in biology laboratory sessions live images from a video microscope as a preview of what they will be seeing; and demonstrate how to use the complex software that they will be using. I find that when students are viewing this material on their own computer screens rather than on a project screen several yards away, they absorb it much better.Matthew Temple, Professor of Biology
Nazareth College, Rochester, NY
In just a few weeks, SMART Sync has transformed the way our students view their work on the computers. They are focused, on task and aware that we are actively involved in their computer tasks. With this software I no longer feel like I'm patrolling – I'm teaching.Holly Loganbill, Library Media Specialist
Indian River School, Canaan, NH
As a result of using SMART Sync I have been able to keep students focused on their work, and help them individually instead of running to each computer. My students are on different tasks, so I could help one student on one level and then help another student on a different task.Debbie Forrest, IBCA/BCA Teacher
Bossier Parish Schools, Bossier City, LA
The ability to read students’ work while they are writing it, and correct it or steer it in the right direction has been amazing.Edward Conroy, History and English Teacher
Commonwealth Academy, Alexandria, VA
I like the fact that with SMART Sync I can reach my more introverted students. Those who may not raise their hand and ask a question in a traditional setting, but would engage in group or teacher chats.Erin Flaherty, Adaptive Technology Coordinator
Keyano College, Fort McMurray, AB
With SMART Sync I am able to focus on the students needing help quicker because I can SEE the problem as it occurs.Georgianna Hall, RSP Teacher
King Elementary School, Cypress, CA
This program is very effective in keeping students on task and delivering pertinent content to their desktops. Also many times students are afraid to approach the teacher for fear of being made fun of by their peers. SMART Sync gives students an avenue of escape. It provides a secretive way to ask questions that may sometimes not be asked for fear of peer pressure.Jerry Walker, Technology Teacher
Eastern High School, Louisville, KY
