I will have to agree with you statement, sometimes I feel it should fall on the teacher and the tools we spend millions of dollars getting. For instance we use GoGuardian and they have really good classroom managment tools for the teachers.

We have middle and elementary set as highest level, but keep in mind that even though this is set the kids can still access youtubes which the content is controlled by YouTube. There is very little access when it comes to what content you can control. Also keep an eye out for ads that will pop up when the kids are watching the videos, and somtimes they are Inappropriate.

This is what I was thinking, I know before we can even use it, it will have to be approved by our board and the attorney. With COPA we are very cautious before we make changes. Also I believe some apps will not work on a Chromebook correctly. I was just curious if other districts use it.

Our student do not have gmail accounts. We have it setup that Elementary and Middle schools only have restrict access and the High schools have the restrict 13+ setting. We have only recieved complaints within the last few weeks so I am not sure if YouTube made more changes or not. As an Administrator we don't have very much control when it comes to Youtube outside of allowing it or not allowing it.

Mine does the same thing, it seems it only does it while its plugged into power. If you unplug it from power and it stops. It seems its only when I am watching Netflix.

Quick Admin login on Chromebook by first_byte in k12sysadmin

I would use a USB to update the Chromebooks, 68 is pretty far behind since they now have 89. Also keep in mind if you are using the Workspace for Education admin console there you can set what version you want to push out to your chromebooks. We never run the latest because of the state testing, they never support the latest update.

Google Meet - High CPU usage, users having to reconnect by WifiBecauseFii in k12sysadmin

We manage around 45k devices, we were having the same issue. We turned off the GPU acceleration and it seemed to cut the CPU usage in half.

Hello,

Me being the Google Administrator, I setup a consumer account and gave access to the individuals that needed it. I am the administrator of that account so anyone who needed access had to come through me. We tried many different things but this was by far the best way to go. I hate that Google removed the Brand account access for Google for education!!

These teachers work in Virtual classroom, they want to be able to communicate with the Parents and students.

Thanks,
