“Doceri allows me to present a lesson from anywhere in the classroom a big plus when trying to manage 32+ middle school students,” says Anne Whitman, 7th grade math teacher at Oakdale Jr. In addition, Doceri provides remote access and wireless control over presentations or any software running on the instructor’s Mac or Windows PC, allowing annotation over presentations, JPEGs, PDFs and even live Web pages. Doceri offers teachers a natural interface to create, edit, save and replay hand-drawn lessons and presentations right on the iPad using their finger, a standard stylus or the accompanying Doceri GoodPoint intelligent stylus. Since its original release last year, Doceri has been adopted by teachers at all levels from K-12 to higher education, who recognize the iPad as the answer to interacting more with their students and less with their lesson presentation materials. The panel will choose three finalists, one of which will be named the winner of the SXSW LAUNCHedu event. Participating companies will present their solutions to a jury consisting of panelists from education, entrepreneurship and venture capital. The update will also be free to registered users of both the paid and free trial versions of Doceri Desktop, which provides access to all pedagogical resources on the desktop or in the cloud, as well as expanded storage for Doceri live drawings and videos.ĭoceri is one of just six technology solutions for higher education chosen to participate in the MaSXSW LAUNCHedu event.
