Features of Red spider software

Red Spider educational software, developed by Guangzhou Chuangxun Software Co., Ltd.

Development, runs the TCP / IP Windows2000/XP/2003/Vista/Windows7 network loaded with TCP/IP protocol, it supports 32-bit and 64-bit Windows systems, it mainly realizes multimedia information network teaching and broadcasting on the LAN for its excellent quality, it is a very good software product with the integration of synchronous teaching, control, management, audio and video broadcast, on-line exam in computer classrooms, and it can achieve the purposes of network management such as simultaneous screen monitoring and remote control[2].

Easy software installation:

Traditional computer classroom, in the general sense, is such a system implemented with projector or hardware network. However, a general classroom cannot be equipped with such a system for its high cost or some other reasons, such as large hardware depletion, troublesome maintenance and difficult updating. But for Red Spider software, a pure software solution, it completely avoid these hardware problems to enable teachers to put theory of teaching into practice, teachers can make a variety of teaching demonstrations on the computer, and any teachers’ step of the procedure is in real-time transmission to the student's computer screen.

Powerful functions and flexible interaction:

A variety of multimedia courseware information, optical disk teaching resources, experimental demonstration system, teaching methods and experiences can be realized by integrating voice, images, text, animation as one through the use of this software to achieve modern interactive teaching mode.

Texts, images, voice and video resources can be shared throughout the multimedia classroom. In this way, interactive communication environment can be realized by constructing a text, voice, video, images, and students can share on their computer screens a variety of teaching resources, it does not only greatly reduce the workload of teachers, but also significantly improve the efficiency of teaching, and the teaching content is extremely lively and the students are willing to accept.

Main functions of the Red Spider educational software

The main functions of the Red Spider educational software are as follows:

Teacher demonstration: to perform real-time synchronous broadcasting of the screen of the teacher’s machine to individual or all the students with teaching demonstrations. It can also be broadcasting the image screen in the form of animated images recorded to make into courseware or teaching materials for re-use or shared with other teachers. Moreover, it can use pre-recorded screen to back play the demo directly to the students’ computers through the network, with this feature, the teaching of automation and standardization can be realized.

Student demonstration: easily to specify any of the students to demonstrate the operation to other groups of students to conduct mutual exchanges and learning while supporting the demonstration of the window or full screen mode.

Black silence: to lock the keyboard and mouse of one or all of the students of the local computer to make the screen display black so that the students’ lectures seriously.

Voice teaching: to conduct voice broadcasting by microphone and headset, and to realize free voice chat and discussion between teachers and students including online voice broadcasting, one-to-one talk, multilateral debate or voice listening.

Screen monitoring: to conduct real-time (looping) monitoring on computer screens of one or more students, teachers do not need to leave the seat to understand students' learning on the student machines across the network monitoring and management.

Remote counseling: Teachers can directly conduct remote control and operation of a student's computers to realized two-way communication with remote students by "hands-on" interactive remedial teaching.

Screen playback: to save the screen recorded in the form of animated images, then playback the screen when recorded, which can either facilitate the teachers ahead of lesson planning, the production of teaching materials related to teaching content, but also to solve the problem of students not keep up with the progress of teaching, and allow students in their spare time to review the contents of the class to improve the quality of teaching.

E-Responder: race to be the first to answer a question to help students learn in fun competitions, and to assist teachers in a timely manner to test the learning outcomes in order to identify problems and solve the problem.

File transfer: to perform a one-time transmission of one or more files to the specified student computer and specify to automatically open or run the file transferred after the end of transmission, do online software installation, distribute papers or demonstrate courseware, which greatly improved work efficiency.

Submit assignment: students can submit multiple files and directory assignment by cooperation with the teacher to realize student-teacher "file transfer", thus fully realizing file interaction between students and teachers through the distribution and submission of students' work online.

Online discussion: through chat by voice and text chat between teacher and students, all the texts will be automatically saved form history and can be readily available when needed.

Far-end message: teachers can acquire on teacher’s computer the machine configuration information of all the students to facilitate management. The information obtained includes: operating system, memory usage, disk allocation and spatial properties of the network / protocol / service, the IP address allocation, parameter settings, seating arrangements.

Process Information: to instantly view each student on the already open applications, and running processes information. If they are found in the class secretly playing games or chatting online, or should any exception process occur, students can always be remotely terminated.

On-line situation: all the students on the line, not on the line, quitting, quitting unexpectedly or escape, network disconnection can be on real-time detection and discovery through details for the teacher’s inquiries and immediately submitted to the teacher for the latest situation so as to make real-time processing. This mechanism plays a more active role in preventing students to freely escape control.

Electronic show of hands: should any students have problems to consult the teacher, they can always call the teacher, the teacher can answer those students at any time for those shows of hands via voice or text response.

Remote command: this software provides remote unified switch-on and switch-off program and computer-restarting instructions, and enables / disables students to send online messages, to submit jobs, and provide synchronization system parameter setting, synchronous upgrade services, and synchronizes system time and other functions. Also, the software can synchronize directly to open the application programs on students’ computers to ensure a unified interface you want to teach in the course.

Class Management: this software provides a very powerful class, group, and student and computer management system. It does not need to be configured to begin the task of teaching. And it introduces the concept of "class, students" to make more than one class configuration management, to arrange the seating of students, to conduct the current state of the group management and teaching demonstration by monitoring students computer.

Problems should be noted

Properly handle the relationships between the teaching instruction and students’ practice:

Teaching practice with students is a dialectical unity. Questions teachers explain should be consistent with those of the students’. Two problems are likely to occur if not properly controlled:

In the first place, teachers speak too much, which leads to the fact that students do not have enough time to practice. With limited class time, that a teacher simply completes the task of teaching in an unbroken time will results in the too long presentation time with teaching taking too much content, which makes students feel learning boring without digesting the content.

In the second place, the demonstration of the teachers’ is synchronous with the students’ practice, which leads to unexpected bad effect. If students themselves are allowed to operate in learning, students will forget certain key steps. This is because the students focus only on the form of imitation in the learning process, but ignore the cognitive improvement.

Desirable practice: First, the teachers demonstrate complete the steps to enable students to watch, not to operate but understanding the overall teaching task, then teachers operate, students follow, meanwhile teachers explain the problems that may occur in steps and procedure, and answer all the problems; in the final, the students independently complete the task or similar task of teaching, in order to achieve the purpose of the flexible application.

Grasp the necessary timing of a good teacher-student interaction:

Classroom teaching is not a process of teachers’ continuous flow of instruction, not is it the practice of the students themselves, but rather it should be an interaction. Teachers’ rational use of interactive in the classroom with students can grasp the extent of knowledge. “Student demonstration”, “Online communication” and “remote counseling” can be used in the Red Spider educational software. Classroom interaction can be prepared in advance and improvising can be carried out by pre-prepared teachers through pre-arranged exchange programs in the teaching process, for example, when a problem is finished by way of discussion or problems, let everyone speak out their own achievement. Spot to play is a temporary problem; teachers in the teaching process should discuss the problem in a timely manner, to study the questions which have arisen due to the solution.

Flexible use of instructional interaction can improve classroom teaching and stimulate students' interest in learning.

Take into account students' individual differences in the ability:

Differences between students, such as intelligence, personality, etc. are an objective reality, teachers cannot deny or ignore the existence of individual differences. In multimedia network teaching, teachers should take into account students' individual differences in the ability to timely adjust the progress of teaching. Teachers can use screen monitor function of the Red Spider educational software to keep abreast of students' understanding of the situation and differences, and discern those who have learned a little better or not, and should be fully aware of whoever has mastered the teaching objective in order to achieve in the classroom counseling targeted. In addition, teachers can promptly adjust the student seat, arranging seats of good students to sit together with poor student in learning. This is not only to promote the progress of poor students, but also to help build the sense of accomplishment of good students who offer helps, which can also reduce the burden on teachers.

Conclusions

The Red Spider software is a very powerful teaching management software, and the rational use of the Red Spider software in the multimedia network classroom can stimulate students' interest, reduce teachers' burden and promote classroom interaction so as to improve teaching effectiveness.
