[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have 2 experiences with it.  First, my daughters MS in prince william used it.  They used their phones at the time.  Kids would make the pass on their phone, the teacher see it on their computer and can approve or deny it.  Seemed to work on from what I heard, but yes, it caused the teacher to monitor their computer.

Second, the Fcps school where I work now is using it.  With the no phone policy, passes are made on the teachers laptop and the student is approved or denied and they go wherever without any kind of device.  The person receiving them clicks something on the site that they arrived.  I guess that part works ok in theory, but it's one more thing for everyone to monitor.   The nice thing about it is you can limit who is out of class and have a better view of how being out of class os being abused schoolwide [/quote]

Wow that sounds like a giant pain.  I don’t want to stop class to go approve a pass or even go over to a laptop to do so if I’m walking around while students are working.  My school is not using this.  I have a sign out/sign in sheet by the door, old school style, in my high school classroom.  They don’t take a physical pass.  They ask to go somewhere, I say yes, they sign out with their name and time and then sign back in.  It is easy and it works.  [/quote]
