The software is used to monitor students' technology in class, create automated or directed instruction, and monitor students while they work to catch any issues that may have during learning and instruction on an assignment.

Likelihood to Recommend

We use GoGuardian daily for monitoring students to ensure they are not off task, accessing inappropriate material at school, monitoring students during an assignment and more easily being able to help them if noticing they are struggling or in need of intervention on their work. It has also been used very well during times when schooling has been virtual as it has allowed us to more easily work with students who are not physically on campus.
