Keeping Students Focused in Class Is Harder Than Ever.

Using virtual classrooms gives schools not only flexibility and access to edtech but also increases online distractions when unmonitored.

Teachers, instead of focusing on the class, have to manually control each student’s behavior to keep them focused. They compete with attractive online content, which usually wins over demanding, slow-paced lessons.

Without real-time monitoring of classrooms, learning performance drops significantly. A lack of classroom insights hinders the tracking and evaluation of student progress.

At GAT Labs, we’ve designed tools to face these challenges successfully.

“Using Teacher Assist from GAT Labs, we’ve seen fewer students opening unrelated websites during lessons, and it’s now easier to spot those who are disengaged. It’s reduced the need for teachers to constantly patrol the classroom just to check screens.”

How to prevent "second-screening" and online distractions in Google Classroom in 2026?

By effectively controlling student browsing during a class. With Teacher Assist, educators can oversee each student’s screen and manage their entire online activity within the Google account. They can customize screen content by switching tabs, delivering lessons, and supervising web browsing to maintain student attention.

Yes. GAT Labs monitors student online activity through the Chrome browser. For admins, it allows tracking browsing and applying web filtering rules. Teachers can monitor students’ screens in real time during a Google Classroom session.
Highly customized filtering of online content reduces distractions for students while allowing access to educational online sources in the classroom. Automated alert rules notify admins of attempts to access unapproved content and help to redirect their attention back to the class.
