BOULDER, Colo.—October 13, 2020—ManagedMethods, a leading Google Workspace (formerly G Suite) and Microsoft 365 cybersecurity, student safety and compliance platform for K-12 school districts, today announced the launch of its new Google Classroom monitoring and reporting features. District IT teams now have the ability to track Google Classroom activity from the same cybersecurity and student safety platform that monitors their other Google Workspace for Education applications.
“K-12 education is undergoing a major shift as students and teachers begin the school year in remote or hybrid learning environments. For IT admins, this is creating new technology, access, and security challenges,” said Charlie Sander, Chief Executive Officer at ManagedMethods. “Our new Google Classroom features will give IT teams the visibility and control needed to support teachers during these challenging times, while protecting students when learning remotely.”
District IT administrators now have access to the following Google Classroom monitoring and reporting features—from one easy-to-use platform:
Districts are still responsible for complying with regulations, including FERPA, COPPA, and CIPA, when students are connecting remotely. These regulations cover communications and access to the content stored on these school-provided applications, including G Suite, in addition to student internet access.
The launch of ManagedMethods’ Google Classroom features follows the recent announcement of the company’s Google Meet monitoring and reporting capabilities. With ManagedMethods, IT administrators can monitor which Google Meet sessions students have joined, create Meet attendance reports for teachers to use, and view any Meet sessions with no teacher or administrator in attendance.
