We also have an “Upgrade Check” which will let you know if you are running the most current version of the program. A direct link to our Live Chat allows you to instantly correspond with an eduware representative online (during normal work hours).

The Virtual Wand
If you are not familiar with our Wands or are using the software in “Mouse & Keyboard” mode, we offer a “virtual wand” to allow you to gain experience with the remote environment. This wand will appear on-screen and allows you to represent student remotes as well as a teacher remote during activities. It is fully functional and with an easy-to-hide feature never gets in the way. You will notice the Virtual Wand in some of our screenshots.

Wand Key Guide
While your activities are in progress you can always use the “?” button on your teacher remote to bring up the “In-Progress, Help Menu”. Here you can access a quick “Wand Guide” that will tell you what each key will do during this activity.
