Enhance online learning with safe YouTube access for students.
Home » Engagement & Impact » Safe YouTube for Schools
YouTube is full of great educational videos that can enrich online learning. Unfortunately, YouTube filtering used to be difficult or error-prone: managing custom lists, trusting the categories set by the uploaders, and fighting the lack of easy customization of YouTube restricted mode.
But with Lightspeed Systems®, safe, educational YouTube access for students is easy and customizable. With SmartPlay™, included with Lightspeed Filter™, you get a variety of controls to provide just the access you want, which gives students access to educational videos, and only educational videos.
Lightspeed SmartPlay leverages our unrivaled database to categorize videos, so you can turn on educational videos in a click and block any inappropriate and distracting content.
Protect students from some of the worst content on YouTube in comments and recommended videos sidebars. With one click, remove access to comments and sidebars, giving students a safe, appropriate, distraction-free YouTube experience.
With SmartPlay, you can enable a safe, native YouTube experience for students in the classroom or learning remotely. Share allowed videos or embed them in your LMS to supplement digital lessons.
SmartPlay is backed by the most comprehensive education-focused database to categorise what’s educational—but different schools have different needs. Customise YouTube access by easily adding or removing videos and channels, such as teacher and school channels needed to enhance learning.
Safety, security, and equity. At the speed of light.
