[quote=“Wayne Workman, post: 43359, member: 28155”]In my honest opinion, you are doing too much. This is a classroom management issue, not a technology issue. If some students are repetitively academically dishonest while using technology, suspend their technology privileges, let them take a paper test instead.[/quote]
I agree Wayne, but I am a technology support person and I do not administer the class room. I can make suggestions left and right, but that does not mean that the administrators will follow my suggestions.
This was also more or less a personal quest, after having so much difficulty in preventing the extra windows, it has become a vendetta lol.
[quote=“Wolfbane8653, post: 43362, member: 3362”]Agreed, but some administrations see that using the shot gun approach to issues is the best. The only way for this approach to work is to limit the technology itself. So Jaymes is making the best out of his situation.
Students pop the keys off of keyboards here all the time. We all know its a classroom management issue but no one does anything, so I’m stuck fixing keys all the time. I do have to hand it to them they did have enough time to spell out “F*** YOU” on the finger placement keys. (Yes they stole the second “U” off another keyboard.) Just something I have to deal with I guess.[/quote]
Thanks for your vote of support and understanding. However, I have found that even after all of my attempts to stop chrome from opening more than once, have failed. My AutoIT program works flawlessly. It won’t allow more than one window of chrome to open, so long as it is what is used to start chrome.
If chrome is already open, you can still click the “open new window” and it will start a new session, the same thing occurs for “New Incognito Window”.
As much as I wanted to solve this issue, I think it is out of my control now. I’ve done everything to block new windows, or attempt to, and to prevent incognito windows, even with reg hacks to prevent incognito, they still start when you click the button. The only thing left to do would be to build a browser… and I am not going that far.
I am going to look into the chrome for education and business lines see if I can find a way to manage sessions and settings via an admin panel.

I have successfully disabled the incognito on the machines here using this reg hack.[URL=‘https://www.internetsafetyproject.org/wiki/how-disable-incognito-mode-chrome’]
https://www.internetsafetyproject.org/wiki/how-disable-incognito-mode-chrome[/URL]new windows however are hard.

It says that after applying the reg hack the option in the menu will not be available… Its still there!!!

It being there, or not, does it open an incognito window?

Yes, incognito window still starts unfortunately
However, I am not sure how reputable this program is, but I found something called “Incognito Gone” and it seems to work well… Now to squash the New window button and this could be golden.
What would be nice is if the service limited logins to a single sign on

One time, I found a keyboard with all the keys arranged in alphabetical order. You know that took a while… Again, a classroom management problem. How can a teacher not notice a kid plucking keys off all hour long? Only if they aren’t being active in the computer lab, only if they aren’t walking around and keeping an eye on things.

I understand your stance. Unfortunately the corporation I work in has little to no accountability, and no one ever gets reprimanded. Even the students who have been showing the others how to cheat get off scott free.
I would like to see better classroom management, but unfortunately, I can’t
These are students that the school corporation has more or less “given up on” and have been sent to an alternative learning center. While the instructors may have given up on the students, I have not.

I ended up making the TEACHER do their job so that I could continue doing mine

@Jaymes-Driver Reminds me of my time in the Army.
Particularly
NCO Creed
No one is more professional than I. I am a noncommissioned officer, a leader of Soldiers. As a noncommissioned officer, I realize that I am a member of a time honored corps, which is known as “The Backbone of the Army”. I am proud of the Corps of noncommissioned officers and will at all times conduct myself so as to bring credit upon the Corps, the military service and my country regardless of the situation in which I find myself. I will not use my grade or position to attain pleasure, profit, or personal safety.Competence is my watchword. My two basic responsibilities will always be uppermost in my mind—accomplishment of my mission and the welfare of my Soldiers. I will strive to remain technically and tactically proficient. I am aware of my role as a noncommissioned officer. I will fulfill my responsibilities inherent in that role. All Soldiers are entitled to outstanding leadership; I will provide that leadership. I know my Soldiers and I will always place their needs above my own. I will communicate consistently with my Soldiers and never leave them uninformed. I will be fair and impartial when recommending both rewards and punishment.
Officers of my unit will have maximum time to accomplish their duties; they will not have to accomplish mine. I will earn their respect and confidence as well as that of my Soldiers. I will be loyal to those with whom I serve; seniors, peers, and subordinates alike. I will exercise initiative by taking appropriate action in the absence of orders. I will not compromise my integrity, nor my moral courage. I will not forget, nor will I allow my comrades to forget that we are professionals, noncommissioned officers, leaders!
