Assisting Students

During Class you may want to watch your students' progress in their labs. This can be done with the Lab Monitoring Tool.

By using lab monitoring you can see a listing of all students' running labs which includes:

• Name of the lab being worked in

• Active Virtual Machine in the lab

• How long the lab has been running

• Amount of time since the student's last activity was performed in the lab

You can also take actions through the lab monitoring tool like:

• View the student's lab as they work in it

• Take control of the student's lab

• Share files with students

To monitor and assist students:

1. Select My Calendar at the top of any window.

2. This will open up your Instructor Calendar. Find your class in the calendar and select on the class name to open the Class page. You may also access your current class from the My Classes link on the top navigation bar.

3. Select Monitor Labs.

4. A new browser tab will open up with all your class's active lab instances displayed with pertinent data about their labs. Select the Monitor Student to view a student's activity as they work in a lab.

5. You then have the option to select Take Control to work through an exercise with a student.
