[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lightspeed is a bargain flash sale version of Go Guardian. You get what you you pay for and it's crap. I could do so much moreover with GoGuardian. [/quote]

Why is a school district with a $3B+ budget cheaping out on this??[/quote]

+1  Totally.  As a parent who knows there's so much video game playing going on in their kid's school, I'm happy to advocate for paying for a license for a monitoring software that actually works.    Who makes these decisions at MCPS and when is the next chance to change back to GoGuardian?

While I prefer GoGuardian, the temu version does the same as GoGuardian. It’s just less user friendly. And if people had a hard time figuring GoGuardian, there’s no way in hell they can figure this one out as it took my a bit and I am tech savvy. Like I legit know of teachers that didn’t even know how to freeze or block shit on GoGuardian, on Lightspeed is a little less forward but I do it on my end and kids don’t play in my class because EVERYTHING is blocked but the sites they need for my class. The main issue here is that MCPS do NOT teach teachers how to use these tools. They do sometimes have optional pdo’s, but let’s be honest, who in their right mind is going to sign up for a training outside work hours? They do need to have trainings during the first week and not make them optional at all as I have had to taught veteran teachers how to use these tools.[/quote]
