Student browsing history

[Buddy Pride]

Does anyone know of a way to prevent students from deleting their own browsing history but not block the settings page completely?

Thanks, Buddy

Are you using Chrome?  If so you can get an so called "enterprise" version of chrome and decide what features you want turned on and off. 

Chromium.  Here is the FAQ page to get you started.  https://support.google.com/chrome/a/answer/188447?hl=en

We view that as an admission of guilt, and set the consequences accordingly.

Ryan,

That seems absolutist and unnecessarily harsh, smacks of the zero-tolerance debacle. It is possible, I would say highly probable, that a kid might erase his or her browsing history for valid reasons.

Isn't there a way to do this in the Chrome Device settings in the GAFE control panel? 

I thought this setting did it?

Kyle,

That setting allows history to be saved, it does not prevent the user from deleting it, this should be manageable from the GAFE console, but it is not.

I should have prefaced my response with a situation. If a student is caught doing something inappropriate (another student sees it, or a teacher) and upon investigating the principal finds the history was deleted, then it is viewed as an admission of guilt. We don't actively look for students deleting their history. 

And we have some principals with great investigative skills, they rarely rely on technology to do their job. :-)

You can definitely use GoGuardian for this, as it allows for a complete history that is entirely unable to be deleted unless requested by the admin.
