[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does everyone check their browser to make sure it is themself everytime they diff the internet on their laptop?  I don't think most of us do. [/quote]

If your child uses Chrome on your laptop, just use a different browser for yourself.  [b]GoGaurdian only monitors open tabs in the Chrome Browser, not everything on your computer.[/b]  It also only monitors if the teacher opens a season to monitor.  Additionally, I'm pretty sure you see a message letting you know there is an open session being monitored.  It's not something that is running in the background 24/7[/quote]

Really? I thought some other poster earlier posted that their DC could see the screen of another child working from home?[/quote]

Here's an earlier response from an MCPS teacher who uses GoGuardian in class:

[b]I'm a teacher who uses GoGuardian. You can see a child's screen who is at home sick if the kid is logged into their school account on a chrome browser during their normal class time. [/b]

From the GoGuardian website, it also indicates that admin can view previous sessions, which indicates there is also logging of data.[/quote]

But it is only showing the Google Chrome screen, not every application.  So, yes, they can see the child who is at home and their screen IF the Google Chrome Browser is open and the various tabs on that browser.  GoGardian pairs with Google Chrome and the students' Chrome account.  [/quote]
