Reflection

Using Go Guardian can improve my ability to give students some space to work while at the same time give me the ability to carefully assist them when needed without embarrassment or creating a distraction in a larger setting. It can also help me virtually monitor students taking tests. Another way it can help me is to provide documentation of work completed and accuracy when reporting a student's distractibility or the need for refocusing on a task. 

Monitoring students while they are working on their computers. Ability to shut off what they are doing if it isn't what they should be doing! Awesome! 

Integrating GoGuardian's features into my teaching practices enhances my ability to engage with all of my students, remotely and simultaneously. By using GoGuardian to screen monitor, I am able to make sure my student's are on task and close tabs that are not appropriate to the focal task. Additionally, the chat feature allows me to communicate with students as they are working, without disturbing the learning or focus of other students. 

I love GoGuardian! This program allows Srp to help the teacher have an extra pair of eyes on students. Some days the class gets busy and teachers have a lot on their hands so an extra set of eyes watching the kids always helps.I love how easy it is to load the classes. Being in so many classes all over the building helps with projects and staying on task, especially if they know you're watching them. GoGuardian is a beneficial new Website. 

I have never used GoGuardian before but I am excited to get started. This is a great way to monitor student work during technology time. This is a lot easier than walking around the room to see if they are on the correct website.

GoGuardian allows teachers to take over control of their classrooms again and allow students to work digitally.  It is so difficult to monitor students while they are working on their Chromebooks.  At the fifth grade level, students are easily side tracked and sometimes are not mature enough to resist the impulse to stray off task.  GoGuardian helps to monitor Chromebook activity.  This is exactly what I have been looking for.  I can’t wait to share this with my co-teacher and the teacher’s aide. GoGuardian is so much easier to monitor than saying, “Hands up!” and then looking at screens.  Ha! Ha!

I actually have never used GoGaurdian before, but I'm excited to get started! This is a great way to easily monitor what is actually being done during class time in a quick and efficient way!

GoGuardian helps teachers with content filtering, time-management, and monitoring capabilities.  This platform allows teachers to specify allowed or prohibited webpages to limit browsing during class.  Teachers are also able to chat with students as needed to redirect their focus.  GoGuardian is an excellent teaching tool since it allows teachers to easily view student work and provide meaningful, confidential feedback.

I love GoGuardian! This program allows teachers so much more control than LanSchool.  Rolling this program out at the middle school last year was so rewarding.  Teachers were amazed and felt like they had control and flexibility in their classrooms again.  This program is a Win-Win in my books.  

GoGuardian is an incredible tool to help keep students focused on their work. As soon as students see that GoGuardian is on, they are aware that the teacher is able to see their screens and control which websites they are on by creating scenes. I love that GoGuardian gives reports of which websites students were on and for how long. I use it often to present my screen to students so that they can learn to navigate where to go or how to code a particular sequence. Also, the messaging and screenshot options are quick ways to help students get back on task.

GoGuardian is a fantastic way to ensure that students are on-task and engaged with course content. The ability to set "scenes" and view timelines of student web usage undoubtedly makes for a more productive classroom. It allows the teacher to focus more on specific content and less on monitoring of internet usage for each classroom while simultaneously encouraging students that might otherwise wander off task to remain focused on what is most important.

GoGuardian is a great online tool that teachers can use in their classrooms to monitor student activity on Chromebooks and keep students on task during in-class work. GoGuardian provides teachers with an (almost) live look at what students are doing on their personal devices and the ability to control student access. I can force close students out of certain tabs, create Allowed and Blocked website lists, lock devices, chat with students, generate reports, and more. Use of GoGuardian will allow me to better monitor my students while they are completing online work to keep students on-task and engaged in class.
