Lanschool Tech Console and Lanschool Reporting Application.

I am attending a LanSchool webinar tomorrow matter of fact that hopefully will address AD integration questions. Thank you LanSchool for providing these webinars.

Hi, recently we add 6 computer to our tech lab, all our tech lab use Lanschool 2015, how should we install the 6 new licenses (5 student mode and one teacher) we acquired this year to the new computers.

Even when I require the student to see and reply to a message when I send it, it is often too small or in a location that they don't even notice it and I have to verbally bring their attention to it.

If you could not recall how to set up the appropriate filters, will someone be available via phone?
