Highlights installation guide Follow
Hāpara Highlights is a browser-based application that helps teachers see what learners are doing in near-real-time in their Chrome browser. Highlights uses a Chrome extension that is force-installed on each student account.
Highlights promotes positive teacher-learner engagement with increased opportunities for digital citizenship support in the moment and reinforcement of pro-learning behaviors. Highlights was not designed as a command-and-control comprehensive filtering and monitoring system. The teacher’s ability to control student devices is limited and short-term by design. Stronger preemptive interventions such as session recording and longitudinal history tracking are not part of Highlights.
