A new version of Securly Classroom is being released this week! Here are the new updates that are on the way:
Seating Chart View
Teachers can now create seating charts that reflect the physical arrangement of each of their classes.
To create a seating chart for a class, from the Classes menu, click the three dot menu on any class card, then click Seating Chart.
When running a class, you’ll see “Seating chart” as a view option in the view selector dropdown.
New Header Bar in Class View
The header bar seen when running class has been reorganized to give teachers better access to change views and other options.
The header also has a new selector for Layout that allows the user to choose Grid, Seating Chart, or Groups (Groups used to be in its own menu).
The new View selector allows the user to choose Thumbnail, Thumbnail + Tab, Tab, or Rhithm.
The Layout selector and the new view selector will remember your most recent selection.
More control over Site Lock when starting a class
One of the popular options when using Site Lock is “Allow but do not open sites.” This option is now available when choosing Site Lock to Collection in the session settings prior to starting a class and in the class options for scheduled classes.
This feature is similar to running a class session with an Allow-Only Blocking Plan, but has the benefit of releasing students individually or in groups once they finish their work and no longer need to be site locked.
