Thank you for your feedback
The System sub-menu contains general settings that apply to the entire system.
General Settings
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Time zone | Select your school’s time zone. |
Classroom Options
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Default location for teachers | When using automatic teacher account creation from roster synchronizations, teachers will be assigned to this location if the location is not provided from the sync source. |
| Allow scheduled class sessions | When enabled, teachers have the ability to configure a class to automatically start at a scheduled time each day. |
| Disable class start/stop notification on student devices | By default, students will see a Chrome notification message each time a class starts, letting them know that their screen may be monitored. This is a privacy warning. This setting can be used to disable the privacy warning. |
| Enable Classroom on Windows, Mac, and BYOD | When enabled, class sessions can be run for students using the Chrome browser on a Mac or Windows device rather than just Chromebooks. When student login to the Chrome browser using their school-issued account, the Securly Classroom extension will run and connect to the system to allow class sessions. This setting should also be enabled to allow Securly Classroom to work on Chromebooks that are not enterprise-enrolled in the district's Google Admin Console (i.e. personally owned / BYOD Chromebooks). Note, however, that such Chromebooks cannot be configured to restrict the student from logging in with a personal Gmail account or prevent them from using Incognito windows, or many other settings that can only be applied to Chromebooks that are enrolled in Google Admin. |
| Teachers can only add students from existing rosters | When enabled, only students who are part of existing SIS or LMS synced classes or are created by admins, can be added by teachers. This prevents teachers from adding students who are not already recognized as students in their rosters. |
| Exclude devices on outside IPs | This can be used to prevent class sessions from starting on student devices when they are not at school, as identified by the IP address of the device and compared to the school's IP range as configured on the IP ranges tab. This setting should be disabled if your school or district uses Securly Classroom for remote classes. |
| Stop running class sessions at end of school hours | This option will automatically end all running classes when school hours end. |
| Enable Enhanced Privacy Mode | This option disables the ability to view student browsing history after class sessions (or observation group sessions) end. This mode helps districts comply with certain states' student data privacy regulations, such as Ohio SB-29. |
Integrations
| Setting | Description |
|---|---|
| Enable Pass Integration | For schools using Pass, this checkbox enables teachers to manage hall passes without leaving Classroom. |
| Enable Observe Integration | For schools using Observe, this checkbox enables teachers to submit wellness observations for students directly from Classroom. |
| Enable Rhithm Integration | For schools using Rhithm, this checkbox enables teachers to push Rhithm assessments and view Rhithm scores while running a class. |
| Automatically unblock pushed URLs in Filter | For schools using Securly Filter, this integration will ensure that sites pushed to students through Push URL and Site Lock will not be blocked by Filter. When a site is pushed, Classroom will create a Temporary Allow in Securly Filter for the selected site or sites for the students in the current class. This Temporary Allow rule will last for the duration of the class. |
