¿ªÔÆÌåÓýJack, that was my first idea ¨C why not?? I was told that teachers were
not allowed to send anything to their students, so that¡¯s when I went for
alternatives.
?
The disadvantages are that the student will have to figure out how to
present the next trial, etc., and the record of his progress will be in his
computer, not yours ¨C those records would be nice to have as you plan the next
lesson.? And I would strongly recommend that you yourself skim through the
program and become familiar with it before using it to help you teach the
student.
?
Given those disadvantages, I would probably still use it on my own computer
rather than the student¡¯s.? I didn¡¯t find the half-second lag to be a
problem except when comparing street-crossing time with warning times, and it
was easily solved by telling the computer the crossing time was a second longer
(it can¡¯t deal in half-second increments or I would have told it the crossing
time was a half-second longer).

Subject: [OandM] Software question ?
?
Dona--
?
I just got the crossings with no traffic control software (usb only).?
I know that you did your demonstration with the software installed on your
computer and the student "driving" the software via teamviewer.? Do you
think there would be any advantages or disadvantages to installing the software
on the student's machine instead?? At the present time I will only be using
it with one student.? Installing on the student's computer would reduce the
lag time issues for the student hearing the sounds and the signal from the
student's computer getting back to my computer, but I suspect there might be
disadvantages that I'm not seeing.? What are your thoughts? ?
I'm also sending this to the O&M list because I suspect that others
might have the same question.?
