IEC Update: LanSchool Version 7.5 LanSchool Releases Version 7.5 LanSchool v7.5 from LanSchool Technologies is now available. Version 7.5 is a major release that brings the Mac version to feature parity with the Windows version, adds audio listening and broadcast for language labs, introduces efficient Multicast video distribution and playback, and adds real-time keystroke alerting on banned words to help teachers control cyber-bullying (see http://lanschool.com/press). LanSchool is famous for its simplicity and intuitive interface enabling teachers to catch on quickly. Another positive? Students can't disable it. LanSchool fully supports any mix of PCs, Macs, Windows MultiPoint Servers, thin clients and now Apple iPads, iPod Touches, and iPhones.
