If you are in a school that utilizes Chromebooks, you can use Securly Classroom to view and manage students' Chromebooks when they are in your classroom.

 

There is a great 15-minute overview video that describes many of the tools in Securly Classroom.  Select this link to view the video.  You can also view our "Advanced Features of Securly Classroom" knowledge base article here.

 

Please note the Securly Classroom only works within the Chrome browser on a student Chromebook.  Android Apps, which are typically the tablet Apps like Squid, are not able to be controlled or viewed using Securly Classroom.
