BYOD concepts, interoperability, and multi-platform support are at the core of the GoClass product concept. The GoClass team is currently testing an Android student client in classrooms with the Tennessee Board of Regents. The Android App is currently scheduled for general availability in March 2013. As the product emerges from beta we expect to support a more diverse portfolio of devices and operating systems.
Thank you for the opportunity to respond to your reviewer comments,
