Rick Bolander on School Guard: kajeet's Latest Tool for Child Access Management

With a focus on providing parents with the tools they need to supervise their children's mobile phone usage, kajeet, Inc., has revolutionized the smartphone industry with innovative products that empower kids and parents alike. The company's newest service, School Guard, brings these tools to administrators and teachers interested in better managing bring-your-own-device programs. Many schools have encouraged students to use their tablets and mobile devices in order to enrich the learning environment, and kajeet has made it possible for schools to manage students' usage of Android-based devices by creating Internet access policies. School Guard enables schools to approach Internet filtering with a granular methodology, providing the flexibility necessary for administrators to tailor the system to their own needs. Using kajeet's technology, teachers can create individualized policies for their own classrooms, and parents can join with their children's schools to manage Internet access at home.
