Effectiveness, Efficiency, Engagement, Ease, and Enjoyment- Splashtop is a 'multiple win situation.' It has become an indispensable and integral part of my everyday professional routine. I will never be tethered to a computer again!" Kevin Nerz, Ed.D. High School teacher "Splashtop Classroom allows our teachers to increase student engagement with or without a projector - also allowing students to take control and present their ideas from their own device. Splashtop also has the added benefit of allowing teachers and administrators to access their files and information from anywhere without having to return to the office and be chained to their desk."
