Cheating is a common concern for many educators in K-12 schools. Some of the technology that helps students learn also helps them cheat. This can include students sharing answers through email or chat messaging or by searching for the answers on the internet. It\u2019s important to put precautions in place that not only keeps students from cheating but also keeps their learning effective. Fortunately, thanks to our AI-powered\u00a0classroom management<\/a>\u00a0tools and smart filtering,\u00a0Lightspeed Systems can help stop cheating and keep your students accountable online.<\/b><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/section>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

BLOCK CATEGORIES<\/h6>

The\u202fcomprehensive,\u202feducation-specific, and always-improving database\u202fpowering\u00a0Lightspeed Filter\u2122<\/a>\u202fincludes sites known to facilitate cheating and plagiarism. This site categorization empowers you to proactively prevent access to\u202fknown\u202fproblematic sites before incidents occur.<\/p>

BLOCK LISTS OF SITES<\/h6>

Our\u00a0Lightspeed Classroom\u2122<\/a>\u00a0software is another tool that can aid in cheating prevention. Teachers can keep students from accessing websites known for plagiarism by creating block lists. The Web Rules Lists feature in Lightspeed Classroom gives teachers the ability to create and save customized lists of restricted websites and block all students or designated student groups from accessing them.<\/p>

ALLOW SPECIFIC SITES<\/h6>

Teachers can also leverage Lightspeed Classroom\u2019s Web Rules feature so students can only access a specific site at a given time. This keeps students focused\u2014and not cheating\u2014during assessments, classwork, and remote learning.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

MONITOR ONLINE BEHAVIOR IN REAL TIME<\/h6>

The right rules and monitoring can help students learn and keep them from cheating. Lightspeed Classroom provides real-time browsing alerts and live screen views so educators can monitor their students\u2019 online behavior and intervene when needed. Teachers are notified the moment a student is off-task; the Screens View feature shows exactly what the student is viewing in real time, so teachers can provide feedback and help correct that behavior.<\/p>

REDIRECT STUDENTS\u2019 FOCUS<\/h6>

In cases of misuse, leverage any or all of the Class Controls in Lightspeed Classroom to quickly intervene. Teachers have full control over their students\u2019 online workspaces to send custom messages to redirect focus, lock student screens, close tabs of distracting content, and push preferred URLs to individual devices (or to the whole class) to keep students focused on appropriate tasks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t
DOCUMENT BEHAVIOR<\/h6>

Sometimes, students don\u2019t listen or change their inappropriate behavior. When this happens, technology administrators can create disciplinary group policies with Lightspeed Filter\u2019s SmartPolicy to establish further online boundaries for students who need more restrictions. Administrators can set group policies by time and day so that restrictions can be applied and removed when needed.<\/p>

BLOCK LISTS OF SITES<\/h6>

If cheating or bad behavior persists, teachers can leverage Lightspeed Classroom\u2019s live screen recording to document it. Click the screen record button to capture inappropriate online behavior to aid in productive conversations with guardians and administration.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
