ClassGuard

What ClassGuard is

ClassGuard is a browser-based service that reviews whether student writing matches each student’s established style. While students write in its editor, it records keystrokes, paste events, pauses and revisions. Teachers can inspect sentence-level authenticity highlights, pasted-text locations, behavioral summaries and replays of writing sessions. The service creates an individual writing profile for every student and updates that profile after later submissions. ClassGuard can import Google Classroom classes, rosters, assignments and earlier Google Doc essays. Teachers and students use it through a web browser, without installing an app. It is presented for K-12 teachers, school administrators and district IT leaders. ClassGuard says writing data is encrypted, securely stored and never shared with third parties, and states FERPA and COPPA compliance. Collection is limited to writing behavior inside the editor, not browsing history or screen recordings. The service is in an early pilot. Its Free Trial costs nothing for 60 days, with full access, unlimited classes and assignments, and no credit card.
