The conversation about student devices has gotten loud. And most of it is wrong. The national average for screen time on school-managed devices is around 70 minutes a day — far below what the headlines suggest. But if you don’t have data to back that up, you’re stuck reacting to a narrative instead of shaping one.
The real problem isn’t screen time perception. It’s the 14.5 school days per year lost to digital distractions — nearly three weeks of instruction that disappears because teachers don’t have the tools to keep students on task and IT doesn’t have a clean way to manage device use at the classroom level.
That’s what this on-demand webinar is about. Watch Lightspeed’s product team walk through how Lightspeed Classroom tackles both sides of the problem: giving teachers practical tools to manage device use in real time, and giving IT the controls to set the policy that makes it work. Here’s what you’ll learn:
