BYOD and 1:1 are the new normal. But when school-mandated devices move between school and home, a range of challenges arise. How can you ensure safe use of that device at home? Are you required to? How can you engage and empower parents to do so? If they do, how can you prevent actions that interrupt learning? Family Zone offers a suite of on-device technologies allowing schools and parents to share monitoring, management and filtering of devices – anytime, anywhere and on any network.
