Senso - Classroom Device Monitoring - Dene Magna & Sixth Form

Senso can be used by classroom staff to monitor the PCs, laptops or Chromebook devices being used by your class. This is available to you on both Dene Magna School and Sixth Form sites. It works by linking with Google Classroom to allow you to see the devices the students in the Google class are working on.
NOTE: Senso is not currently available in ICT1, ICT2 or ICT3.  Impero is installed in here instead.


Launching Senso

You can access Senso from the School Website Useful Links > Staff  (https://www.denemagna.co.uk/page/?title=Quicklinks&pid=297) or go to https://ne-3.senso.cloud/ 
Login with your Google Account.






Anyone set as a Teacher in a Google Classroom Class (this can be any member of staff e.g. Teaching Assistants) will then have their Google Classes showing in the left hand side of the Senso portal under "My Google Classes".   See an example here:-
