What is AirServer?
AirServer is a screen mirroring tool that allows educators to share their iPad screen through the AirServer software installed on their Dell laptop. Its primary use in many classrooms is to utilize the camera app on the iPad to serve as a document camera. The iPad can then be docked on an iPad stand for a hands-free experience. This setup allows educators to model, showcase, and display things on the larger screen.
