Getting Started with GoGuardian

Use the Google sign in option
Import classes from Google Classroom - saves time and updates automatically
Use sessions to monitor students during class (Be careful not to run sessions for students in other classes!)
Try turning on "Off-task alerts" to be notified with students are visiting sites determined to not be school-related.
Create Scenes to limit the websites students can visit. Create allowed or blocked scenes and take advantage of the Quick Lists from GoGuardian and our district.
Lock student screens to bring student attention to the teacher

Use a scene to limit tabs and windows students can access during an assessment.

Create a Blocked Websites Scene
Click the "Auto-Open Tabs" link on the right side of the edit scene and paste in the link to the assessment from the Assign window. Add a second website like the school website or my.sduhsd.net.
Set the tab limit for students to 2 tabs.
Click Save.
Start a session in GoGuardian Teacher. When you are ready to start the assessment, select the scene you created in the upper right corner of your GoGuardian session.
