...easy to use categories

An important factor in dynamic application access is the flexibility with which access status can be changed. INiS provides a simple system with 3 predefined categories:

The "permanently locked" category is for crucial applications used for configuration and system maintenance, that are best kept hidden. Permanently locked applications will not be able to be activated on the fly. We recommend System Administrators to work closely with teachers to decide on the most suitable settings for this category.
All applications allocated to the "permanently unlocked" category are available to everybody in the classroom to launch and use. This setting is recommended for programs considered essential as part of a lesson, such as the Calculator.
The "Dynamic Access" category defines applications that can be activated at the teachers discretion at any time when required. This setting is recommended for any programs whose access status will change according to the lessons requirements, e.g. a game which is at first locked but will later be made accessible as a treat to students.
