In the classroom.
Surfly by its simplicity of use is perhaps implemented used in many situations. It can even be used in class, if you have students connected, to allow them to see directly on their tablet or computer your navigation screen. The service can also be used by several remote students to perform a remote web search in collaborative mode.
Surfly is free. Flexible and easy to use, it lacks only the … word, if I may say so. To be truly complete, the service lacks a chat or dialogue space to facilitate exchanges between the various employees.
