Web filtering software needs to be at the center of your hybrid and remote learning plan. Filtre Lightspeed (anciennement Relais) provides filtering, reporting, and student protection you can rely on, no matter where students are using their devices. 

1. Filtres Lightspeed SmartAgent™ assurer le filtrage peu importe où les élèves choisissent d'utiliser leurs appareils. Assurez-vous de déployer des SmartAgents sur tous les appareils que vous envoyez chez vous avec les membres de votre communauté.
2. Règles après l'école dans le filtre Lightspeed allow you to turn filtering and reporting on and off based on the needs or requirements of your district. Plus, our tool allows you to adjust filtering policies after school hours or when devices are used away from school networks—pour Chromebook and all other operating systems.
3. Lightspeed Alert ™ signalera les termes et enverra des alertes concernant l'activité (related to self-harm, bullying, or violence, for example). This visibility can be an essential safety measure that helps protect students facing threats and isolation at home. If you’re using these features, review and discuss your internal policies for managing alerts that emerge during extended closures. La bonne stratégie globale contribuera à améliorer la sécurité des élèves.
4. Assurez-vous que les outils d'enseignement à distance sont autorisés. If your teachers are using new tools to conduct their remote classes, make sure you allow those tools in your filtering policies. These could include additional YouTube channels (where they post class recordings), live streaming tools, and more.
5. Reconnaître que les élèves peuvent devenir isolés and adjust your policies accordingly. Sites you typically block during school, including social media, games, and chats, might be tools students use to help cope with isolation and loneliness during extended closures and quarantines. Consider adjusting policies—and using Lightspeed Alert—to continue monitoring and to offer members of your community the support they need at difficult moments.
6. Gardez un œil sur vos rapports. Many students are still adjusting to hybrid and distance learning. Filter reports allow you to monitor how devices are used and how students and teachers are adapting to this new environment.
7. Vérifiez les politiques de confidentialité des outils you and your community introduce. Many companies have offered tools to help schools deal with remote learning. Most of these free tools are great, but not all have the same standards when protecting users’ data. The right filter can help you verify those tools and apps. Also, only work with companies you trust to ensure you’re not inadvertently putting students or their data at risk.
