Managing a modern classroom means keeping students engaged, minimizing disruptions, and tracking movement in and out – all without losing valuable instruction time. But without the right classroom management tools, tracking student behavior both online and offline can be overwhelming.
That’s why we’re excited to introduce two new features in Lightspeed Classroom: Hall Monitor and Class Highlights! At no additional cost, these innovative classroom management tools are designed to help teachers streamline digital learning management, support student safety, and enhance student engagement – both in the digital and physical classroom.
Hall Monitor: A Smarter, More Efficient Digital Hall Pass System
Traditional hall passes are easy to lose, disrupt instruction, and make tracking student movement difficult, while standalone e-hall pass solutions add another platform for teachers to manage. Hall Monitor eliminates the guesswork by digitizing hall passes right within Lightspeed Classroom, giving teachers a simple, built-in way to issue and monitor student passes in real time.
What a digital Hall Pass means for schools:
- Less classroom disruption: Students can request a pass and teachers can approve it digitally, eliminating mid-lesson interruptions.
- Better visibility: Schools get an instant, real-time view of who is out of class and for how long, better supporting student safety.
- Student accountability: Hall passes now have a clear digital record, helping prevent misuse.
By making digital hall passes more efficient, schools can improve safety, reduce unnecessary time outside the classroom, and keep students focused on learning.
Class Highlights: AI-Powered Insights That Save Teachers Time
With students spending an average of 98 minutes per day on school-issued devices, keeping them on-task is more important than ever. But teachers don’t have time to manually sift through reports or constantly monitor student activity online.
Class Highlights brings teachers and schools AI-driven insights to Lightspeed Classroom, surfacing key engagement trends so teachers can act fast – without spending extra time reviewing data.
What teachers and schools can track at a glance:
- Top educational sites: See which learning tools students use most.
