Kvm Switch

[tweezer]

Hello All,

I'm looking for a KVM switch (I think) to set up a computer based training classroom. The device should basically allow the instructor to control the student's monitors. That is, the stsudent will see what the instructor's screen show. Then the instructor can switch the student's monitors to their own PC where they can carry out excercises on the training material.

Does anyone know where I might find somthing like this in Thailand, or what is the appropriate device I should use? I will have 10 student PCs in a training room, and one instructor.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

For software solutions, there's iTALC (http://italc.sourceforge.net/). It stands for "Intelligent Teaching And Learning with Computers" so it's probably purpose-built for just such a situation as yours. I've never used it, though.

There's also TightProjector (http://www.tightvnc.com/projector/), which is built on TightVNC. I've used it in the past and while it does its job, it's not overly user friendly. There's a free trial which can be used for 20 minutes at a time, or $20 to register.
