Learning Access Suite

What is the Learning AccessSuite?
This suite offers new and effective software classroom tools for students, teachers, administrators and for use at home. It includes a range of facilities to make reading, writing and studying so much easier and will help schools to meet the current requirements for increased access to learning for students. The Learning Access SuiteTM is a unique collaboration between major Assistive Software providers Nuance, Claro and Microlink PC. Available on a subscription basis.

Why does my School need the Learning AccessSuite?
Many students have difficulty with learning, and need practical tools to help improve their literacy. This is the package that brings together helpful and easy to use software to enable students to create, read and check text with the use of colour, magnification, voice-enablement and language support. Students have been shown to benefit greatly from these particular software tools and many schools in the UK wishing to achieve the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) have purchased this suite in order to do so.

Net Nanny

Blocks Pornography Blocks pornography, questionable chat rooms and other dangers of the Internet. You can even configure Net Nanny to block online game and gambling sites, and even make it so children can only install and play computer games with parental ratings that they deem appropriate.

Integration With Popular Search Engines Integrates seamlessly with "Safe Search" options found in popular search engines so your children can't search on a search engine or see links to blocked sites. This enables better protection against pornographic images when doing an "image only" search. The only way to bypass the safe search is with your unique administrator password, which only you, as the parent, knows.

More than Just Web Protection Full protection, not just on the World Wide Web, but also on less known but equally dangerous parts of the Internet like the Usenet, Peer-to-Peer downloading networks, Chat Rooms, Instant Messages, FTP, Forums and email.

Enhanced Reporting Net Nanny provide parents with reports on Internet activity of children. Know what sites your children have visited, and what sites they have attempted to visit. See full text of the actual Instant Messages. Net Nanny empowers parents to monitor and or block children's access to certain areas of the Internet. Internet Predators don't have a chance against parents armed with Net Nanny.

Remote Management Powerful Remote Management tools exist to help parents to manage and maintain Internet policies remotely if an Internet connection exists. Monitor web browsing and instant messaging from anywhere!

AcademicExpressware working with SUN to offer ICT Solutions for Schools

Achieve your ICT provision and accessibility goals in less time, while reducing hardware and support costs

Empower teachers and pupils to spend more classroom time on learning activities – and zero time troubleshooting PC problems.

Embrace greater mobility, flexibility and accessibility to learning applications and files – for students and teachers, at school or at home.

Remove day-to-day pressures on ICT support teams, so they can better focus on value-added tasks.

Use a secure, ‘open standards framework’ technology that works well with Windows – but doesn’t lock you into any proprietary technology

Major benefits for schools, their students and parents

You may be on track to achieve your ICT goals – but would you like to accelerate provision and accessibility, while dramatically reducing your management and support costs? Working with Sun and AcademicExpressware we can enhance any school ICT environment, whether you’re using Microsoft Windows or Linux, PCs or Apple Macs … and integrate virtually every platform and device
By reducing complexity and widening availability, you can make a major difference in the school – and the home. Teachers can avoid wasting precious lesson time sorting out students’ technical problems, while support headaches are minimised for network staff. Wherever they are, students can access their previous working ‘session’ within seconds, thanks to the ‘always on’ nature of Sun technology. This avoids lesson time being eroded by boot-up delays and problems. Better still, students can access their own ‘desktop view’ from anywhere within the school on any machine – or from their family PC at home. Teachers and students can also enjoy remote access to files and applications, without needing a powerful PC or broadband internet at home, or having to carry expensive devices between home and school. No costly pc’s going wrong; no loosing work done; all applications held securely on servers; software upgrades carried out on your server without needing to make similar changes to hundreds of desktops; provide a far more reliable ICT service and save money.

Step-by-step savings

Taking the AcademicExpressware/Sun route doesn’t mean scrapping your entire fleet of desktops. Rather, you simply replace machines when you wish. And instead of buying costly new desktops that last only 2-3 years, you can choose a much simpler Sun display unit – called a Sun Ray™ – that will continue operating a state-of-the-art desktop for 7-10 years. These devices cost less too, so you can afford more of them and get closer to your 1:1 pupil-to-ICT target ratio. The sustainability benefits are also significant. Sun Rays require less space and less power than a traditional desktop, while creating less heat and zero noise – improving the teaching environment. With Sun, it’s possible for schools to start reaping the benefits of greater performance and lower costs, while reducing their carbon footprint. You can do this by simply introducing sustainable Sun Ray displays – to replace devices that have reached the end of their lifecycle.

Richer learning environment

Schools can enrich their curriculum beyond their few ICT enabled classrooms with existing monitors or low-cost, wireless Sun Ray laptops.

Robust & secure

As well as providing excellent network stability, Sun also protects your ICT investment from physical damage and electronic attack. Exceptional Internet security protects you from intrusions and viruses, while the simple and robust nature of Sun Ray displays mean there’s very little that can actually be damaged.

Secure global desktop (SGD)

You can maximise the benefits of Sun technology and provide total flexibility for staff and students by introducing Sun’s Secure Global Desktop (SGD) Software to your servers and extend your virtual school learning environment. This solution enables secure, remote access - from anywhere, at any time and from virtually any device. You can use SGD with – or without – Sun Ray displays. Applications - not just files. Teachers and pupils can access applications as well as files and emails. For teachers, the burden of paperwork is reduced through remote access to the school's MIS system. For pupils, the school's specialist learning applications can be accessed from home. Secure Global Desktop is an inclusive solution for everyone. While a broadband connection is ideal, the solution can also be accessed via a 56k dial-up modem. It doesn't need the latest technology in the home either, as SGD only needs a Java-enabled web browser. This makes the solution accessible to students with older PCs.

Choice & flexibility

Sun’s Secure Global Desktop Software follows an ‘open standards framework’ and will work with an existing Microsoft environment, as well as Linux and Solaris, and many other platforms. SGD works best where applications are centralised, and the school has some form of directory service for authentication. Military-grade security SGD is highly secure too, providing an excellent architecture that isolates the access server from the application and data servers. In fact, SGD is used by the military, police forces and banks.
