Block content allowed by my school

Updated

This article is for Teachers.

You can block content your school has allowed to prevent distractions during your Classwize session, provided the website is not allowed by a Locked Allow Policy.

You can create Classwize rules before starting your class, and they will remain in the rules list until you delete them. Each time you start your class, the rules will automatically apply.

If the website is still not blocked after you create your rule, you can try troubleshooting the issue or contact your school’s IT Support.

Create a block rule in a class

  1. Sign in to Classwize.
  2. Select the Class you want to add rules to.
  3. Select Rules to open the Class Rules menu. If there are existing rules for the class, they will show in the Class Rules list.
  4. Select Create Rule if your class has no existing rules, or + New Rule if there are existing rules. This will open the Add new rule window.
