GoGuardian Research

Monitoring and Filtering
 GoGuardian has two types of monitoring. It has regular monitoring which also comes in two sub-categories, and filtering. Regular monitoring using GoGuardian Teacher can only monitor the student's computer during active class sessions, but if GoGuardian Admin is in use, monitoring occurs 24/7. It's not confirmed, but chances are AISD uses both GoGuardian Admin and Teacher. The main thing GoGuardian monitors is browsing history, which can be accessed by teachers and admin. Filtering is different from monitoring because monitoring just records data, and filtering actually blocks content. Teachers and Admin, using their respective GoGuardian software can chose what content to block.
