We are currently not supporting mobile devices or tablet computers when using the King’s InterHigh Student Hub. Development is ongoing and we look forward to offering this in the future.
We recommend using a Windows PC or laptop for compatibility as King’s InterHigh course material is created on Windows computers. Apple Mac computers can be used, although they work with different file types which may require files to be converted. We also recommend using the Google Chrome Internet browser when using an Apple Mac computer.
We recommend that students have access to a printer and scanner for school work as some subjects require the printing and scanning of class exercises and exams. It is also possible to use a mobile phone to photograph completed work to scan it using the Microsoft Lens app.
All setups will require speakers and a microphone. We recommend the use of a USB headset which combines both headphones and microphone.
Many lessons will offer students the opportunity to participate using their webcams. We recommend using an integrated webcam or an external USB webcam depending on the device type.
An office package – Students will have access to the online versions of Microsoft Office apps whilst they are attending the school. These apps can perform the majority of tasks needed for school work, but do have limitations compared to the installed versions. If students wish to use the installed apps, it is advised that a Microsoft 365 Subscription is acquired.
Adobe Reader is recommended, but an internet browser will be able to open these files if necessary.
Google Chrome (latest version) is recommended.
Adobe Connect is used for online classrooms. These work most efficiently when opened with the Adobe Connect application. The latest version can be downloaded from Adobe Connect Downloads and Updates.
